Crazy idea – whisper to use your computer. Might produce some quality ASMR in open plan office.

I dunno, we already have stuff like Krisp AI background voice cancellation. I don't think it's far away to completely cancel background talking out. This is already huge for things like pair programming while one person's in the office, one is at home. If you have noise cancelling headphones for the person in the office too (with a bit of white noise), you can have a pretty perfect call in a noisy room. (not sponsored)
I'm not bothered by my call quality, which as you noticed is fine, I'm bothered by all the other people speaking (sometimes quite loudly) on their calls while I'm not on a call :-)

True, that's where I find noise-cancelling headphones with some white noise helps a lot. But I feel you
It's the future I always imagined as a child. A vast divider-less cubicle scape of people in Patagonia vests who define all caps constants by yelling at their standing desks.
"USER!! UNDERSCORE LIMIT!! EQUALS TWO THOUSAND AND FORTY EIGHT!"
The hard part will be open plan offices.
It’s bad enough that so many meetings are now zoom/teams and proximity to coworkers means you end up hearing their side of their meetings.
Just wait until all the devs are coding this way too.
