Yes. Kinda. Creating an algorithm that can solve the Rubik's Cube is relatively simple -- the kind of algorithms that allow AI to beat humans at chess or Go or even DOTA 2!

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.

I recently tried to teach my 8-year-old nephew how to solve his 2x2x2 Rubik’s Cube, with four elements on each side. But he already had a curious method of his own, using probability.

Two algorithms developed by the researchers, collectively called Deep Cube, typically can solve the 3-D combination puzzle within 30 moves, which is less than or equal to systems that use human ...

At the outset, Rubik’s cube looked like another ’80s fad. Between 1980 and 1982, the toy’s first years on the market, its distributor sold 150 million cubes.

The Rubik's Cube is the world's top-selling puzzle game with more than 400 million units purchased worldwide, according to an estimate on the official website. It was invented in 1974, by ...
