Why do you single out drivers? If the whole I/O behaviour of the computer would be performed by the NN, why not drivers?

Yes and that bit sounds to be relatively easy to automate.

I guess you would put that information into the dataset. In supervised learning it's called labels.

I was assuming that the "general purpose computing" training dataset would be so unfathomably large that unsupervised learning would be a necessity. Who is going to label the "general purpose computing" training dataset and how would it be persisted?
- lagrange77 2y ago> Who is going to label the "general purpose computing" training dataset That's what i imagined to be easy to automate. We have tons of inputs* and real computers, that will output what real computers would output. * and hopefully the knowledge to come up with a set of inputs that (together with an actual general purpose computer) contains the essence of what general purpose computing is.
