I’m skeptical.

I’m always skeptical of these papers that claim to read minds, because my understanding is current brain reading technology is very coarse (Neuralink is SOTA, very invasive, and only 1-3 thousand electrodes for 55-70 billion of neurons; fMRI is much worse) and neural networks generate plausible images and videos from noise. Indeed, the example videos don’t seem particularly stimulating, just random.
