I think the claim is that they can use AI to improve the sound of their headphones if you supply them with images of your ears. I just dont like them having a database of personally identifying information like that.
How personally identifiable is your ear though? It's not connected to your thoughts, you can't use it to determine your age height and weight, which ad company would need that data? IMO, it's no different than sending a mold of your ear tube to a CIEM company to get your custom molded earphones.
Ears turn out to be a good way to recognize individuals. Ear biometrics is an evolving area.

I see. I still don't think it's cause for concern yet, but good to know. Thanks!
Northrup Grumman probably already have a prototype to identify you by your ears from a mile up and kill you with a single bullet the moment you're not inside.
