Using 35 years of computer processing time donated by Google, a team of researchers has now been able to calculate the minimum number of moves it should take to solve the Rubik’s Cube. Back in 1981, ...

Some of the fastest Rubik’s cube solvers in the world have gotten down to a five second solve — which is quite an incredible feat for a human — but how about one second? Well, [Jay Flatland] and [Paul ...

For the first time, a deep-learning algorithm has taught itself an efficient way to solve a Rubik’s cube. A Rubik’s cube has over 43 quintillion possible combinations — but only 1 solution, which is ...
