## Abstract (arXiv)

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly central to understanding how the brain processes information. However, the integration of neuroscience and modern AI is bottlenecked by a fragmented software ecosystem. Current tools are siloed by recording modality and optimized for small-scale, in-memory workflows, limiting the use of massive, naturalistic datasets. Here, we introduce NeuralSet, a Python framework that efficiently unifies the processing of diverse neural recordings (including fMRI, M/EEG, and spikes) and complex experimental stimuli (such as text, audio, and video). By decoupling experimental metadata from lazy, memory-efficient data extraction, NeuralSet harmonizes standard neuroscientific preprocessing pipelines with pretrained deep learning embeddings. This approach provides a single PyTorch-ready interface that scales seamlessly from local prototyping to high-performance cluster execution. By eliminating manual data wrangling and ensuring full computational provenance, NeuralSet establishes a scalable, unified infrastructure for the next generation of neuro-AI research.
