Authors propose 'productive friction' for AI-mediated multisensory visualization, addressing a 'deterministic-affordance mismatch' where deterministic interaction cues persist while AI weakens predictability, locality, reversibility, or provenance. Drawing on Iron Man 2 and Blade Runner 2049, they outline four frictions that expose inference boundaries, match action to effect, make stochastic branches tangible, and attribute sensory agreement.

Frames a design principle for surfacing AI uncertainty through multisensory feedback. Relevant to practitioners building interactive agentic tools where users must sense model confidence.
