A new if not unique KRRNP vs kqn mate in three chess problem generated autonomously by a computer using the computational creativity approach which doesn't use any kind of traditional AI or even deep learning. Chesthetica has the creative ability to compose positions on an 8x8 canvas that may otherwise take centuries to arise in an actual game, if ever. Depending on the type and complexity of the problem desired, a single instance of Chesthetica running on a desktop computer can probably generate anywhere between one and ten problems per hour. This position contains a total of eight pieces. The largest complete endgame tablebase in existence today is for seven pieces (containing over 500 trillion positions anyway) which means the problem could not have been taken from it regardless.
