Apple will release AirPods with a camera

In the latest macOS Tahoe beta, a video was found showing the headphones "seeing" the surrounding world: a person shows an object, and the system recognizes it and saves the information.

Now, Siri will be able to answer questions about objects around the user.

In macOS, a separate "Visual Intelligence" setting for AirPods was also discovered.
