The AirPods’ cameras “aren’t designed” to snap photos or video but instead can take in “visual information in low resolution” that users can query Siri about, like asking the AI assistant what they should cook with the ingredients they have in front of them, according to Gurman. They may also use the cameras to help with things like turn-by-turn directions.

So you got to hover that leek next to your ears? Nice they are low resolution but if they can recognise something sitting on a kitchen counter in front of you then that is not a relevant argument. They can 100% be used to identify people standing in front of you as well and that is going to be outside anyones control.
