Computer-Generated Chess Problem 02259
Now, here we have a 'KRRNN vs krrpp' chess puzzle or problem (whichever you wish to call it) composed by a computer program, Chesthetica, using the 'Digital Synaptic Neural Substrate' computational creativity method. It does not use endgame tablebases, artificial neural networks, machine learning or any kind of typical AI. There is also no proven limit to the quantity or type of legal compositions that can be automatically generated. The largest endgame tablebase in existence today is for 7 pieces (Lomonosov) which contains over 500 trillion positions, most of which have not been seen by human eyes. This problem with 10 pieces goes even beyond that and was therefore composed without any such help.
