I wonder if tech people are assuming this is super obvious (the object manipulation is the hard part; the cube solving part is just an extraneous detail since that's been solved since forever) while communicating about this project, and it just happens to be less obvious to non-tech people and therefore accidentally misleading. I could guess that non-tech people when seeing the project barely notice the robotic hand part ("robots have been in popular culture for decades, I guess this is just one of them"), figure that thinking about a Rubik's cube is a smart-person thing, and therefore it's a new smart AI thing too now. The whole case seems like a nice example of how it's necessary to think about how to present the assumptions and goals of a project.
