Short answer - No. With our current level of technology and progress in the field of Artificial Intelligence there are no computers that can program themselves. However, depending on what you mean by "programme", there are lots of devices that can configure themselves using computer technology. However, even here this is ultimately due to "hard coded" behavior in the circuitry of these devices which is essentially a form of programming from a hardware perspective, which also originated from an external source (people). Of course you could also argue that people can't really "program" themselves either. If you stay strictly within the bounds of the physical realm (not accounting for metaphysical/spiritual aspects) people and by proxy their actions are also a result of causal laws. In this context, we are only a product of our Biology and our environment, so in that regard we are no different then a organic computer. Of course, this is not accounting for any metaphysical or spiritual elements, which could significantly change the model of human behavior to be different from that of a computer's behavior.

What is the difference between the BIOS and a device driver?
Well,the basic input/output system (BIOS) on a computer is a simple yet important program on a personal computer (PC) that helps the computer properly boot and run an operating system (OS) during startup. BIOS drivers are typically used in reference to the program itself, and how the program runs and interacts with other devices on the computer. The BIOS drivers on a computer are saved on a small battery located on the motherboard and allow for the proper initialization and startup of a computer when powered on. In computing, a device driver or software driver is a computer program allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device.
