What we have here is a 'KQRBBNPP vs kqrb' mate in 5 chess construct composed autonomously by the program, Chesthetica, using the Digital Synaptic Neural Substrate AI computational creativity method. Chesthetica can compose problems that might otherwise take centuries or longer for human composers to think of, so you may enjoy them right now. Chesthetica is able to generate various types of mates and study-like constructs and also compose problems using specific combinations of pieces fed into it (e.g. composing something original using only a rook vs. five pawns). Learn more about it on ChessBase. Noteworthy here is that a chess position with over 7 pieces could not have been derived or taken from an endgame tablebase because 7 pieces is the present limit.

Some of the earliest chess problems by humans are over 10 centuries old but original ones by computer are very recent. White is over a rook's worth in material but the precise win in this position still needs to be found. Leave a comment below, if you like. Some of these problems may be trivial for you, especially if you're a club or master player but bear in mind that chess lovers can be found at all levels of play. So do check out some of the other problems. You can probably find something more to your taste. If you're bored of standard chess, though, why not try this?
