Is there nothing it can't do...

I'd like to see a longer excerpt before assuming "these trends" (from the quote) actually equate to AI. If nothing else I'd think telecommuting across the globe was a more obvious challenge to AI, and outsourcing certainly has been a substantial issue for years now.

Meaning there is no need to bring white collar temporary workers (as in H1B) since AI has their knowledge and skills already encoded. Local people with vocational training can supervise AI to do the job. Unless you have very specialized skill.

Remote work is not the Panacea many claim it to be. The more coordination and collaboration there is the more in-person has advantages.
I do both. Sure I like working from home and not dealing with traffic. It works well for some project and it works poorly for others. There is not universal solution that applies in all cases.

The more coordination and collaboration there is, the more benefit there is to doing it remotely. If you're not getting those benefits, you're doing it very wrong. Where I work, we get way more benefits from collaborating over the Internet, and much more friction trying to do the same thing in-person. It's not even a fair fight. In-person vs. remote is like a fat slob at his worst vs. Mike Tyson in his prime.

It depends on the team. I can see how a group of socially awkward introverts would have trouble sitting in the same room, but every big project kick-off we've had, everyone's been in the office together. We order lunch in and bounce ideas off each other. Can't do that over the internet anywhere near as effectively.

So you don't know about conference calls and desktop sharing?

Any time you think there is a universal, one size fits all solution, you are probably mistaken.

And I've seen exactly the opposite. It depends in the people. It depends on their respective locations. It depends on the product.
As I said, It works well for some project and it works poorly for others.
