There was briefly a thing like this pushed during the pandemic. It was basically zoom, with an avatar that could move around. The key benefit was the chat was local, so you could go to different ‘rooms’ with people as a kind of ersatz lunchroom conversation.
It was a neat idea for a time when many felt a lack of organic connection.
spatial audio honestly has the potential to be a legitimate (if moderate) revolution for digital conferences, being able to lean over and whisper into someone’s ear is soooo much more intuitive and makes the whole process much easier.
Full on VR conferences would be super easy to use, but of course making something actually functional is too boring and thus no company will ever do it.
