‘Someone is getting fired’: Apple leaks clip of camera-equipped AI AirPods — spawning privacy concerns

Apple accidentally leaked footage of its unreleased camera-equipped AirPods in the macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate, drawing privacy backlash and 4.6 million views on X. The earbuds, similar to AirPods Pro but with tiny cameras in the stems, use Apple's AI-powered Siri and Visual Intelligence to analyze images in real time, and are expected to launch at the iPhone 18 event next month.
