What we have here is a 'KQR vs kqrp' mate in 5 chess puzzle created 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 three-movers, four-moves, five-movers and study-like constructs and also compose problems using specific pieces types fed into it (e.g., composing something original using only a rook vs. five pawns).

Humans have been composing original chess problems for over a thousand years. Now a computer can do it too. White actually has less material than Black. The white army is down by about one (Shannon) pawn units in value. 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.
