Anthropic's Claude Opus 5 has successfully solved a complex Rubik's Cube puzzle using a new benchmark called TWIST. This benchmark requires the AI to interpret screenshots of the cube and issue commands, simulating a real-world scenario without direct access to the cube's state. Claude Opus 5 completed the 20-move scramble in 44 minutes, utilizing 73 screenshots and approximately 240,000 tokens, with the majority of the time spent in 'thinking' rather than cube manipulation.
