If you were hooked on The 100 back in 2014 (or caught up a bit later), you probably remember the chilling Artificial Intelligence, A.L.I.E., introduced in Season 2.
This sentient AI took control in the dystopian series, but here’s a fun question to jog your memory: What was painted on A.L.I.E.’s device? Drop your guess in the comments below—we’d love to see how many fans still recall this detail!
Did Elon Musk Borrow from The 100 for Neuralink?
Here’s where things get intriguing. Some fans speculate that The 100’s portrayal of AI might have inspired real-world tech moguls like Elon Musk. So, let’s test your trivia knowledge: When was Neuralink, Musk’s brain-chip company, founded?
The answer: Neuralink kicked off in 2016, with the first public buzz hitting in March 2019. That timeline raises a playful theory—could Musk, between plotting Mars missions, have binge-watched The 100 and snagged ideas from a teen sci-fi show? Did Mark Zuckerberg also sneak a peek at the screen? It’s a stretch, but it’s fun to imagine tech titans drawing inspiration from dystopian TV.
A Wild Vision: Demons, Brain Chips, and Augmented Reality
The plot thickens with a bizarre twist. Recently, a guy named Earl Hook appeared on the Uplifted channel, claiming a dream (or prophetic vision) whisked him to the future—straight into a City of Light-style world from The 100. But instead of A.L.I.E., he says demons ruled the scene.
According to Earl, a “mark of the beast” chip linked to the brainstem controlled everything—sensory input, thoughts, even hormones like endorphins. Picture this: a fully immersive augmented reality where cockroaches taste like fresh oysters, and euphoria reigns supreme. Earl described 15 minutes of mind-blowing bliss—think endless highs and a society obsessed with food and sex, all fine-tuned by this demonic chip.
He admits he was lost in the chaos, following orders from these “demons” until prayer snapped him out of it. Was it real? A psychedelic trip? Or just too much late-night TV? Comments under the video are buzzing—some call it nonsense, others wonder if Earl’s onto something. Could The 100 secretly be prophetic?
Brain Chips and the 98% Mystery
Let’s ground this in science for a sec. Experts say we use only 2-4% of our brain’s potential—maybe even less. One cubic millimeter of brain tissue could theoretically store 50 U.S. Congress libraries worth of data, yet most of us struggle to memorize a nursery rhyme. Conspiracy theorists love this: If we control just 2% of our brains, who—or what—runs the other 98%? Are we already living in a simulation, Matrix-style, without realizing it?
Elon Musk seems to think he can unlock the answer. Neuralink aims to merge human brains with AI, potentially tapping into that untapped 98%. Is it genius, madness, or a step toward Earl’s demon-ruled dystopia? We don’t know yet—but the possibilities are wild.
What Do You Think?
- Did The 100 inspire Neuralink, or is it all coincidence?
- Could Earl’s vision hint at a real future—or is it just sci-fi fever?
- What’s your take on the brain’s unused 98%?
