• Offline Usability: Optimized to run on mobile devices without requiring constant internet connectivity, ensuring accessibility in the most challenging circumstances.
• Efficient Training: Built using Unsloth for rapid training, leveraging Hugging Face’s TRL library to maximize efficiency.

Applications

1. Personal Emergency Assistant

PocketSurvivor-3B functions as a multi-faceted survival advisor, offering practical steps for handling events like natural disasters, civil unrest, or large-scale technology failures such as prolonged power or communication outages. It provides guidance on:

• Securing basic needs (food, water, and shelter).
• Delivering first-aid tips.
• Maintaining mental composure under pressure.

While it cannot guarantee safety, it adds an extra layer of support by suggesting clear, actionable strategies when immediate decisions are crucial.

2. Confidence Builder During a Crisis

In the midst of an unfolding crisis, the model helps users adapt to rapidly changing conditions by:

• Providing real-time guidance for resource management and personal safety.
• Assisting with prioritizing tasks and finding temporary solutions to immediate challenges.
• Offering emotional resilience techniques to maintain focus during chaotic situations.

By breaking down overwhelming circumstances into manageable steps, PocketSurvivor-3B empowers users to make informed decisions when it matters most.

3. Resource for Apocalyptic Survival

In the event of large-scale societal collapse or extreme resource scarcity, PocketSurvivor-3B offers practical suggestions for:

• Fortifying living spaces and securing essential resources.
• Optimizing supply usage and planning safe travel routes.
• Maintaining group cohesion, delegating tasks, and managing potential conflicts.

Although it does not replace human judgment or ensure absolute success, it equips users with a range of potential strategies to improve their odds of survival in dire circumstances.

Training Data

The model was trained on a synthetic dataset specifically curated with questions simulating real-world survival scenarios. Data included instructions for:

• Navigating natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, and hurricanes.
• Surviving civil unrest or governmental collapse.
• Managing injuries, illnesses, and stress in isolated conditions.
• Building temporary shelters and purifying water with limited resources.

This dataset emphasizes clarity, adaptability, and prioritization of tasks in high-pressure situations.

Model Performance

PocketSurvivor-3B has been rigorously tested in simulated environments to ensure its responses are practical, efficient, and adaptable to real-world challenges. The model's small size ensures it remains accessible without sacrificing critical functionality.

Disclaimer

While PocketSurvivor-3B is designed to be a helpful companion in critical circumstances, human judgment should always be the final call. Language models, including this one, can hallucinate or provide inaccurate information, especially depending on the level of quantization selected. Users are strongly advised to verify critical information and use the model's outputs as guidance rather than absolute truth. Always exercise caution and common sense in survival situations.

PocketSurvivor-3B empowers users to face adversity with confidence, clarity, and composure, making it a trusted companion in the most unpredictable circumstances.
