## Abstract (arXiv)

As spatial computing and multimodal LLMs mature, AR is tending to become an intuitive "thinking tool," embedding semantic and context-aware intelligence directly into everyday environments. This paper explores how always-on AR can seamlessly bridge digital cognition and physical affordances, enabling proactive, context-sensitive interactions that enhance human task performance and understanding.
