We all use ChatGPT, Gemini, and other AIs to get answers to questions. They can help you do repairs, find a job, and learn all kinds of new skills. You may not notice it now but these tools rely on a stable internet connection to operate. The Ark is an offline survival computer with AI that could save your life off the grid. These guys already have an app that provides you with tips on how to build a shelter, start a fire, and find food and water. The computer doesn’t require a subscription. Its AI provides you with sources, so you will know it is not hallucinating.

This offgrid AI computer weighs only 3lb. It provides you with survival advice and also has offline maps as you can see in the above video. It lets you communicate with others from 50 miles away. The bad news? Something like this doesn’t come cheap.
