Do you prefer to work alone or to work in a group? Be it in-office or remote. Guided works should not be included as it involves at least 2 people.
And also on an interesting note, how much AI has replaced your work buddy?

Remote, because my commute would be 140 miles round-trip again. Otherwise I mostly enjoy working in an office with people and I don't mind going in every few months or so.

Remote is also nice because it actually makes it easier to collaborate with other developers when we can both be at our own keyboards and share screens.

I work well alone, but I spend a lot in time in calls, either work meetings or collaborating on code. I do enjoy the social aspect of that as well.

I use AI pretty much every day, but mostly as a search engine/SO replacement. I rarely let it write my code for me, since I've had overall poor results with that. Besides, I have to verify the code anyway. I do use it for simple refactoring or code generation like "create a c# class mapped to this table with entity framework".
