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.
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.
it’s bizarre without context, but i recognise what they mean - Sony’s headphones app suggests you send them photos of your ears so they can analyse the shape to improve the noise cancellation.
Wrong chat dude. What does that have to do with AI anyways?

Ears turn out to be a good way to recognize individuals. Ear biometrics is an evolving area.
