I'm looking to try and write a chess AI. Is there something i can use on the .NET framework (or maybe even a chess program scripted in Lua) that will let me write and test a chess AI without worrying about actually makign a chess game?

Monte-Carlo Search Tree: The Monte-Carlo search tree is used to make each move: The engine randomly plays a set of moves from a given position. The final position is then evaluated by a neural network, that returns a single value. This process is repeated a certain number of times.
AlphaZero, the game-playing AI created by Google sibling DeepMind, has beaten the world's best chess-playing computer program, having taught itself how to play in under four hours.
Not sure about what you are trying to do.
If you are looking for a ready-to-use chess GUI, you can use WinBoard. It is completely decoupled from the underlying chess engine(s), thanks to an established communication protocol. Your chess engine thus becomes a console app exchanging commands with the GUI.
A more modern alternative following the same concept is UCI. A GUI supporting UCI is Arena.

I write a Computer Chess Blog that takes you through all the steps of writing a chess engine in C# from scratch, it includes a computer chess links section and a chess game starter kit.
