John Ternus To Take Over As Apple CEO In AI Era As Tim Cook Steps Down

The handover ends Tim Cook's 15-year run, replacing the operations specialist who built Apple's supply chain with the engineer who built its hardware.

After 15 years at the helm, today is officially Tim Cook’s last day as Apple CEO. In April, Apple announced that Cook would step down as CEO on September 1, with John Ternus set to take the reins. Cook, of course, isn’t going away completely. Instead, he’s set to become executive chairman of Apple’s board of directors.
