Apple CEO Tim Cook is stepping down as Apple's chief executive officer, and hardware engineering chief John Ternus is set to take over, Apple announced today. Cook will continue on as Apple CEO through the summer, with Ternus set to join Apple's Board of Directors and take over as CEO on September 1, 2026. Cook is going to transition to executive chairman, and he will "assist with certain aspects of the company, including engaging with policymakers around the world".
I wonder what this will mean for Apple and whether this is an ominous foreshadowing of the ongoing hardware crisis. It seems to me like this would only be happening if the Macbook Neo has a difficult coming year or two down the line and he’s taking the fall preemptively. Either that or perhaps undisclosed health issues.

It’s been rumoured for about a year now
There doesn’t have to be a health issue. 65 is not an unreasonable age to want to transition into semi-retirement
