Apple’s Next CEO and the AI Race

With “hardware guy” John Ternus as the frontrunner for the next CEO, a key question emerges: can Apple overtake its ex-employees now leading the charge at OpenAI and Meta in the AI arena?

The Key Challenge

Apple’s potential leadership shift comes at a critical time, as rivals aggressively advance in artificial intelligence. The company’s integrated approach, blending hardware and software, will be tested against the pure-software focus of its competitors.
