"The Norwegian information also talks about how to survive for three days without power"

I mean canned food etc is useful but you wouldn't even die from starvation if you stood outside for that amount of time.

Wouldn't be hard to code it to easily swap between GCP and AWS ahead of time knowing things like this could happen

I kinda feel like the sort of kiki weird odd name of chatgpt helped it gain traction. People care way less about pleasurable brand names than marketing people think. Just 'chat' is way too generic etc (sounds like many unoriginal SF companies)

Seems like a non pessimistic idea of something LLMs could help us out with. Mass analysis of old texts for new finds like this. If this one exists surely there are many more just a mass analysis away
