Emergencies = No Internet
What about no power? You gonna run your generator for your local model? What are we doing here? Have we lost our way completely?

Yeah, we forgot information on paper it seems. Flawed as it is I like the idea though..
I'm conflicted here -- on the one hand, you make a good point. Things we take for granted normally are luxuries in a survival sitation. On the flip side, running a generator for a bit to get an LLM to generate schedules, guides, step-by-step that can be edited/followed on a much lower-powered device seems reasonable.
I'm using for the emergency hot tub and hairdryer first. The last thing you want in a state-wide blackout is to be walking around super relaxed but with wet hair..
Generators require the infrastructure that supplies fuel, and you need to have a generator you might not need.
Solar panels and batteries are great for emergencies, and they're useful besides.
> What about no power?
Solar panels? You can go down to Harbor Freight right now and pick up a setup that will run a laptop or tablet for a while, for a couple of hundred dollars. One wouldn't have to spend a ton more to get a setup that can run a decent PC with a GPU for at least a little while.
I mean, you're probably not going to run it all day, especially not in the part of year with fewer daylight hours, but anything's better than nothing. Plus the same solar setup can be used to power other useful things.
