Cowen asks (https://medium.com/conversations-with-tyler/tyler-cowen-robert-wiblin-stubborn-attachments-80000-hours-podcast-359aa62aa8ab …) if VR can finally replace face-to-faces. People this weekend agreed there's something special about face-to-face but not about what, when I asked: is voice enough? Gesture tracking? Eye-gaze tracking? Facial mapping? How could this be tested?

uh, no? you just put the vr set on
But you are spending time to be there. While on the VR you are not doing other things. Sure you do not signal the cost of going to the place but that feels like a small cost unless you fly from afar
