Nubank CEO David Vélez argues that as AI increasingly does the work a remote individual could do, in-person collaboration becomes the stronger argument for the office. Rob LeClerc counters: remote workers already collaborate via Slack, Zoom, and email, and organizations with high WFH rates codify more information, making them more AI-ready than those with opaque information silos.
