'The chess problem - originally drawn by Sir Roger - has been devised to defeat an artificially intelligent (AI) computer but be solvable for humans.'
I take issue with that statement. All chess engines I'm aware of will correctly play out the draw, so it doesn't defeat them. The engines will _evaluate_ a material advantage for black.
Frankly, this isn't really a surprise.
Incidentally I once won money on Betfair (a P2P betting site) by evaluating a position in a Kasparov vs computer game that looked like a win to computers for the computer, but that I knew Kasparov would prevail in. My fellow gamblers were trusting the computer evaluations :)
