Apple’s post-Cook era begins with strength and uncertainty. As John Ternus takes over, Apple must prove its massive hardware base and silicon edge can offset its lag in frontier AI, turning time bought into a real competitive advantage.
Capability is advancing faster than reliability. LLMs model language—a lossy map of reality—so fluency scales, but truth doesn’t. The key constraint isn’t compute, but grounding, objectives, and stable learning dynamics.
