ArXi:2605.10404v1 Announce Type: new With the growing prevalence of always-on hardware such as smart glasses, body cameras, and home security systems, life-logging visual sensing is becoming inevitable, forming the backbone of persistent, always-on AI systems. Meanwhile, recent advances in proactive agents and world models signal a fundamental shift from episodic, prompt-driven tools to next-generation AI systems that continuously perceive and react to the physical world. Although life-logging video streams can substantially improve utility of these promising systems, they also
