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.

If you're trying to solve a Rubik's Cube, the key is to break the puzzle down into several smaller steps.

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.

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 ...

Then in the 1980s it was renamed to the Rubik's Cube. The Speed Cube is a special version of the Rubik's Cube that is meant to be solved very quickly.

A quantum Rubik’s cube would be infinitely more complex than the traditional puzzle, but mathematical modelling shows it wouldn’t be unsolvable. In the summer of 2022, Noah Lordi and Maedée ...

A machine has taught itself to solve a Rubik’s Cube without human assistance, according to a group of UC Irvine researchers.

The Rubik's cube is back and bigger than ever. Why is it still so hard for me to solve?

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 ...
