Here is a 'KQBP vs kbnnp' mate in five chess construct composed autonomously by Chesthetica using the DSNS computational creativity approach which doesn't use any kind of traditional AI. Chesthetica has the creative ability to compose positions that may otherwise take centuries to arise in an actual game, if ever. There is also no proven limit to the quantity or type of legal compositions that can be automatically generated. The largest complete (Lomonosov) tablebase today is for seven pieces which contains over 500 trillion positions. With each additional piece, the number of possible positions increases exponentially. It is therefore unlikely that this problem with nine pieces could have been taken from such a database.
