Here is a 'KQBB vs kqrnn' five-move chess problem generated autonomously by the prototype computer program, Chesthetica, using the relatively new computational creativity approach called the 'DSNS'. There is no known limit to the quantity or type of compositions that can be generated. The largest endgame tablebase in existence today is for 7 pieces (Lomonosov) which contains over 500 trillion positions, most of which have not been seen by human eyes. This problem with 9 pieces goes even beyond that and was therefore composed without any such help.

The chess problems are published chronologically based on the composition date and time. However, later compositions may have an earlier version of Chesthetica listed because more than one computer (not all running the same version of the program) is used. White actually has less material than Black yet still wins. The white army is down by about 5 (Shannon) pawn units in value. Did you find this one interesting or have something else to say?
