So this website claims this puzzle cannot be solved by a modern chess engine like Stockfish:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wCJalNkTEI
I let Stockfish 12 lose on my Mac Pro and after 43 minutes it found the solution:
43.23: +5.99/52 1.Nf6+ Kg7 2.Nh5+ Kg6 3.Bc2+ Kxh5 4.d8=Q Kg4 5.Qe8 c4+ 6.Kc6 Ba3 7.Bd1+ Kh3 8.Qxe3 Nb4+ 9.Kb5 c2 10.g4+ Kg2 11.Qd2+ Kg3 12.Qc3+ Nd3 13.Bxc2 Bb2 14.Qxc4 Ne1 15.Qc7+ Kg2 16.Qc6+ Kf2 17.Bd1 Bd4 18.Qxh6 Be3 19.Qh4+ Kf1 20.Qg3 Bf2 21.Qf4 Nh7 22.g5 Kg1 23.Qe4 Kh2 24.Bf3 Kg1 25.Qg4+ Kh2 26.g6 Nf6
I gave it more time and after 26 hours 41 minutes it found mate in 32:
#32/74 1.Nf6+ Kg7 2.Nh5+ Kg6 3.Bc2+ Kxh5 4.d8=Q Kg4 5.Qf6 Kxg3 6.Qe5+ Kf3 7.Bd1+ Kg2 8.Qd5+ Kg1 9.Qc4 c2 10.Qg4+ Kf2 11.Qe2+ Kg3 12.Qxe3+ Kg2 13.Bxc2 c4+ 14.Kd5 Bc5 15.Be4+ Kf1 16.Qf4+ Ke1 17.Kxc4 Nxe4 18.Qxe4+ Kd2 19.Qf4+ Ke2 20.Qxh6 Bf2 21.Qxa6 Ke3 22.Qf6 Bg3 23.Qd4+ Kf3 24.Kd3 Bf4 25.Qf6 Kg4 26.Ke4 Bc1 27.Qf5+ Kg3 28.Qf3+ Kh2 29.Qf2+ Kh3 30.Kf3 Bf4 31.Qg2+ Kh4 32.Qg4#
In the course of an additional 43 hours it found other variations of mate in 32. After 168 hours it has not found anything new, so I cancelled it.
So the question is - who is right? The web site claiming that the puzzle is flawed and there is no clear forced win for white, or Stockfish believing in a mate in 32? Either way, it is interesting but rare to see positions evaluate like this (from initially thinking black is clearly ahead, to switching its mind after 43 minutes of running on 16 cores and 20GB of RAM):

Oh. and it speaks volumes about the stability of my Mac Pro. Look at what it did while I was working normally on it during the week with hardly any noticeable slowdown:
