But only if they manage to drastically reduce/eliminate the latency that's present with video conferencing.
It gets us one step closer by allowing virtual eye contact, but if the latency is still there, it will still be subpar to in-person interactions.
The other thing that wasn't so evident by this video is that everyone you were taking to would have to be wearing Hololenses, so it will still be a bit awkward.
Not trying to be a downer, just that as a remote worker, I think about all of these things that make remote interactions hard.
