Solving a Rubik's Cube is hard enough for most people, and solving a Rubik's Cube with one hand is even harder. But what about designing a lone robot hand capable of solving a Rubik's Cube all by itself? Researchers at OpenAI — a popular San Francisco-based analysis lab focused on advancing benevolent artificial intelligence — announced that they'd done just that, introducing a new robotics benchmark in an era of increasingly sophisticated, intelligent instruments. To solve a Rubik's Cube, you require unprecedented dexterity and the ability to execute flawlessly or recover from mistakes successfully for a long period. Even for humans, solving a Rubik's Cube is not easy, because there are 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 to mix it up. For ages presently, researchers have continued programming robots to solve Rubik's Cubes as instantly as possible. But more recently, in July, the University of California at Irvine proclaimed that an artificial intelligence system solved a Rubik's Cube in just over a second, surpassing the current human world record by more than two seconds. Highly experienced individuals can tackle a Rubik's Cube in approximately 50 movements, but the AI system can solve the cube in about 20 moves, usually in the minimum number of steps possible, researchers said. The narrator says that the hope is to build robots that can do many different tasks to increase the standard of living and give everybody a better life. Well, that's it for this article and I hope you learned something new.
