It's not really a style of music that I want to play but I'd love to have her technical ability.
She is a good player.

also like someone else said some people play and record the track, then play along to the good recording
just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
I listened to enough of it to know that I am utterly uninterested. I gave it a chance, really I did. Nearly two seconds worth.
Anyway, it's in that moronic vertical video format, so doubly obnoxious.
If you think that's cheating...it's the same reason that music videos have never been live.
In this case, I think it's exactly what's happened - her fingers are moving in and out of sync with the audio.
My guess is this is largely the result of the public at large being ignorant of production practices involved in studio recordings regarding instruments, at least it certainly was for me, being ignorant of the fact that even a single guitar solo can be edited from multiple short takes yet still make a natural sounding recording, that was a bizarre thing for me to get my head around when I first learned of it.
Makes sense to do it with studio recordings, whatever creates the best musical experience makes sense, but then using that same technique with the audio but using a video style without cutaways, editing etc, to give the impression of being a singular "live" performance definitely feels a bit cheeky.
Am I wrong in thinking that literally everybody does this on social media, and that if you didn't do it, you'd be at a huge disadvantage? ie have to be twice as good a guitarist as everyone else (or spend 5x as long) to sound equally good as one's peers, who are producing a music track for their video then shooting a video to fit on top of it.
