Earlier this year, while putting together a video about the world’s fastest solvers of the Rubik’s Cube, I decided to devote some time to learning to solve the classic puzzle myself. Tyson Mao ...

Fancy algorithms capable of solving a Rubik’s Cube have appeared before, but a new system from the University of California, Irvine uses artificial intelligence to solve the 3D puzzle from ...

But no matter the cube, the process of solving one involves math — specifically, algorithms. Roman Chavez loved Rubik's Cubes so much, he founded the Jr. Oakland Cubers in high school.

AI can solve a Rubik's Cube before you even get started The algorithm gets it done in just over a second.

No matter how mixed-up it is, the Rubik’s Cube can be solved in 20 moves or fewer, say a team of researchers who used computer time donated by Google to run complex algorithms to prove it. That ...

A machine learned to teach itself to solve a Rubik’s Cube without human assistance, according to a group of UC Irvine researchers. Two algorithms, collectively called Deep Cube, typically can ...

A group of mathematicians, desperate to discover all solutions to Rubik's Cube, get free computer time from Google and reach their Holy Grail.

Callan said he has collected close to 100 Rubik’s Cubes, including a variety of cubes that are different than the standard Rubik’s Cube.

Few things reveal the limits of someone’s problem-solving skills faster than a Rubik’s Cube, the multicolored, three-dimensional puzzle that has befuddled so many since the 1970s. Though the ...
