...users can query Siri about, like asking the AI assistant what they should cook with the ingredients they have in front of them ... may also use the cameras to help with things like turn-by-turn directions.

Those are some pretty underwhelming use-cases. I can't see the world beating a path to anyone's door for that. Even if you were so excited about these features that you were willing to overlook the privacy concerns, it seems like the phone you've already got would probably be just fine as a conduit for such services.

Done. I held up my GPS-enabled smart phone I paid $50 for 10 years ago to my eye line, better yet I was able to get a real-time preview of the angle of the picture to ensure everything's in shot.

So now I have to stab every person wearing airpods if I don't want to be spied on by the Five Eyes intelligence agencies?
