Robot Guitar Does Not Compute

Dissatisfied with guitar playing in the meat world, instrument maker Gibson has come up with a solution that is music to the ears of the pro-robot brigade: A robotic guitar.

Well, they call it the Robot Guitar but there’s not a lot of cybernetics involved; all it really does is automatically tune itself, which is kind of neat in a way. I guess there’s little to fear from this technology, though if you’re a big fan of noise rock made by out-of-tune guitars you may want to head for the bunkers.

Now if you really want to fear robots overthrowing water bags in the music industry, just watcvh American Idol this season. Or you can watch this video of the Rapping Rock-afire Explosion.
