Artificial intelligence, which may at some point automate your job and can already defeat professionals in six-player poker, is now able to solve Rubik's Cube faster than any human.

A deep reinforcement learning algorithm can solve the Rubik's Cube puzzle in a fraction of a second. The work is a step toward making AI systems that can think, reason, plan and make decisions.

The algorithm used for solving the cube is CFOP – solve the white cross, the white corners, the middle layer, the top face, and finally the entire cube. In practice, the robot ended up taking ...

The fastest people need about 50 moves to solve a Rubik’s Cube. “Our AI takes about 20 moves, most of the time solving it in the minimum number of steps,” says the study’s senior author, Pierre Baldi, ...

Want to solve a Rubik’s Cube? Then you have to know the numbers. Here’s the amazing math behind the legendary toy, and how to use it to solve the puzzle.

He solved a 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube in the blazing time of 4.76 seconds — around the same time it takes a Ford Mustang GT350 to accelerate to 60 kilometres an hour.

The UCI algorithm is impressive, but it’s not the fastest nonhuman conqueror of the Rubik’s Cube. In Germany, researchers built a robot in 2016 named Sub1 Reloaded that solved the puzzle in 0. ...

Most kids can't wait for the final bell of the school day. But at Aloha Huber Park Elementary in Beaverton, some students stay after school to learn about algorithms -- through a Rubik's Cube.

Researchers have developed an AI algorithm which can solve a Rubik's Cube in a fraction of a second, according to a study published in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. The system, known as ...
