Have you tried only logging the Input.mousePosition?

   Debug.Log(Input.mousePosition);

I t$$anonymous$$nk it's the way you are using the ScreenToWorldPoint() function.

The documentation says that you should use the z value of the vector3 to specify a plane offset from the camera. So if you never change that value and it's stays at 0, then the only "WorldPoint" valid will be the camera position.

Try t$$anonymous$$s instead:

 Vector3 vector = new Vector3(Input.mousePosition.x, Input.mousePosition.y, Camera.main.nearClipPlane);
 Debug.Log(Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(vector));
