By 2025 VR/AR will neutralize any remaining advantages to being physically co-present with colleagues.
Possible scenario: It's 2025. The epidemic is over, but most big tech cos are still significantly remote, because powerful employees moved to Jackson Hole and don't want to move back. A startup emerges that's intensely not-remote, and beats one of the incumbents by moving faster.
