I can really see this happening, and it would affect everything. Like the OP said, AR will give people the ability to do things outside their expertise. This will lead to less demand for certain workers or industries. I could also see AR affecting dating, relationships and sex.

    Imagine if people are so used to it they essentially can't function without it. Then one day the whole system is down for whatever reason - maintenance, software failure, intentional disruption, etc.
