Would never work with the ac-series. Not enough time to form a neural pattern between builds. There is a semi-prior art here. Unix on the Tandem (now Compaq) Helix shipped (and maybe still does) with a Neural Net for system sanity and tuning. Only problem is that the learning period usually exceeds the average time between installing releases (communications customers). 8^)
