This is a clickbait title. Altman is mostly talking about startups here, not larger or more well-established companies.
I’m a huge believer in remote work for jobs at big and midsize companies. But I’ve also started two companies myself and would never start a startup full remote. Context is key.

Having a real office is extremely costly, and I'm certain there's many businesses that may have survived that died, had they not had that extra expense. it's also easier to find better talent to build startups remotely and for less pay initially with maybe more equity... than it is in a specific area, plus you need to relocate to big cities. I'm in southern Utah, rural. I'm 2 hours from Vegas, if my startup needs some face time we can all fly to Vegas for a retreat or something or meet once a month there... other than that remotes the only way I'll work and I don't think anyone should be forced into an office if their productivity is better remotely.
