Computer-Generated Chess Problem 02135

A new if not unique KQRRP vs krnn four-move chess construct generated by Chesthetica using the DSNS computational creativity approach which doesn't use any kind of traditional AI. Chesthetica is able to generate 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 three pawns vs. a knight). (Read more about it on ChessBase: https://en.chessbase.com/tagged?tag=Chesthetica). 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 9 pieces goes even beyond that and was therefore composed without any such help.
