What we have here is a 'KQRBNNP vs kqrrnp' mate in 4 chess problem generated 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 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., composing something original using only a rook vs. five pawns). Read more about it on ChessBase. Any chess position over 7 pieces could not possibly have been derived from an endgame tablebase which today is limited to 7 pieces.

These chess puzzles are published in order based on the composition date and time stamp above. Due to the sheer volume of compositions generated, the latest ones may therefore only be published later on. White has a knight and a bishop for Black's rook. Looking at the position, it is somewhat cluttered. Do you think you could have composed something better with these pieces? Share in the comments and let us know how long it took you. 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.
