Sabine complains about the exact same point - that even if that paper turns out to be true, there is no real link to consciousness.


I am not watching a video


If you like physics and you haven't watched Sabine, you're missing out. She discusses recently published research in an entertaining and accessible manner while also doing a good job of touching on more advanced aspects pertinent to the topic at hand. She's great at covering the skeptic's perspective (she usually takes that perspective herself) and playing Devil's advocate, especially when it comes to anything adjacent to her life's work in particle physics.


A video is always a red flag for me. If you can't make the argument in text that's a sign of something.


Ironically, the video is a skeptic's attempt at a balanced review of a published paper, and the paper, which makes its argument in text, is way more bullshit than the video's verbal discussion of it.
