Buck Stuhlmueller warns AI-based cyberattacks on the power grid, financial system, internet infrastructure, or water are plausible within a year. His basic prep list: a few weeks of cash; a Starlink Mini ($150 plus $10/month standby) for connectivity; 1 kWh daily power needs covered by a 1 kWh LiFePO4 battery (e.g. EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus, $1,250) and a 400W folding solar panel that refills 1 kWh on a sunny day.
