I already assume that everything that goes into a cloud somewhere WILL be used for other purposes, at the very least as AI training material, and this will be no different. And the plan is for at least some (possibly all?) video to automatically be extracted to some kind of cloud storage, no matter how temporarily. From the article:
That's a hell of a non-answer to all the privacy concerns Apple already knows the public has. Since this entire article is itself just a manufacturer-friendly puff piece for pre-release promotion, the only conclusion I can draw is that Apple is willfully holding back the specifics on all of that.
And again with the fucking notification light, like that's the solution to all privacy concerns. On AirPods a light can't possibly be more than a pinhole itself, just because of the size of the device, so that'll be even worse than Meta's joke of a notification light.
