I assumed that successfully unscrambling a cube would forever remain on my bucket list, but a smart Rubik’s Cube is finally teaching me the strategies to solve one.

Solving a Rubik’s Cube doesn’t have to be complicated. In this video, I break down the easiest method step-by-step, making it simple for beginners to follow along and finally crack the cube.

The leading school of thought for solving a Rubik’s Cube quickly is called Fridrich’s Method, and it’s available online.

Scrambling it is much easier than solving it. But it still involves some fascinating questions, such as the number of random moves needed to consider the cube truly messed up.

The AI then trained itself in a computer simulation, learning how the movements of the hand affect the cube and how gravity affects the cube as it’s being manipulated.

To solve the Rubik's cube, all you need is a slightly expensive connected cube, and time to kill.

The new Rubik's cube champion, Phillip Weyer, solved the 3 x 3 x 3 cube in 6.74 seconds and this new AI from researchers at UC Irvine can do it in a fraction of a second.

Automated Rubik’s Cube solvers are such a common sight in robotics competitions that Guinness World Records has a dedicated category for them. But OpenAI Inc.’s new entry into the field stands ...
