Here is a new 'KRRBP vs kqrn' mate in 5 chess puzzle or problem (whichever you wish to call it) composed 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 mates in 2, mates in 3, mates in 4, mates in 5, study-like constructs and also compose problems using specific combinations of pieces fed into it (e.g., instructing it to compose something using perhaps two queens vs. four rooks). Read more about it on ChessBase. This position contains a total of 9 pieces. The largest endgame tablebase in existence today is for 7 pieces (containing over 500 trillion positions anyway) which means the problem could not have been taken from it regardless.

If you notice any version of Chesthetica 'skipped' from one problem to the next, that simply means additional (minor) changes were made to the program before it was set to run again. Chesthetica composes everything autonomously (no human intervention) and even chooses the main line of the solution to show you. If this one is too easy or too difficult for you, try out some of the others. Feel free to copy the position into a chess engine and discover even more variations of the solution.
