When different disciplines such as music and technology come together, they can spark remarkably interesting ideas. Thus, it's no surprise to see that--for those of you who are aspiring musicians, avid guitar players, or anything in-between--there's a new program out there that promises to help you master the guitar. Allen Van Wert, who is known as one of the fastest guitar pickers in the world, developed an artificial intelligence program called the Ultimate Picking Program. Van Wert created the program to cut costs associated with private teachers and to customize lessons based on the user's skills. The first time you use the program, you complete a test that assesses your strengths and weaknesses.
