It depends entirely what you're working on. If it's just talking with people in a meeting room, that can be entirely replicated. The issue there is that we have bad teleconferencing tools and slow devices/networks such that there is 200ms+ of unnecessary latency on top of the propagation delay, bad quality overcompressed sound, feedback or noise cancelling issues, and so on. Video teleconferencing is in its infancy, engineering wise. Zoom and friends are mediocre at best.
