A Lego Mindstorm robot that can solve a Rubik’s cube?
Damn. My Mindstorm creations can barely pull 0.9Gs in a Hummer through the slalom while plinking Coke cans out the window at 1000 yards in high winds with a 9mm. Maybe I need the organic semiconductor cognitive self awareness accessory kit.
I think the key here is that the Rubik’s cube is highly solvable.
I’m guessing that Lego could easily operate at “War Games” levels, i.e. – beating Matthew Broderick at Tic Tac Toe.
On the order of difficulty I’m sure that Lego would still be challenged to win a game of chess, while probably being more than capable of computing the inadvisability of impregnating Sarah Jessica Parker.
