Morning Brew Daily · The Tim Cook Era is Ending & Pancreatic Cancer Breakthrough? · 21 Apr 2026 podcast

Yeah, let's take a look at his resume.

So I went to his LinkedIn.

Education, University of Pennsylvania, Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, 1993 to 1997.

And then he went to work as an engineer for virtual research, July 1997 to June 2001.

There's only one other thing on his LinkedIn.

It's Vice President, Hardware Engineering,

at Apple July 2001 to present 24 years and 10 months.

We'll have to update that with the CEO.

So he has been at Apple nearly half of his life.

The general reaction to this, it's like a screen pass on 3rd and 10 going to Florida on vacation.

It's not going to blow your socks off, but you know it'll be effective and won't rock the boat.

If you look at Apple's past three CEOs, Steve Jobs was the product innovator.

Tim Cook was the guy who knew the nuts and bolts of the supply chain.

And Ternus is the engineer.

He likes to get in the nitty-gritty of these products themselves and bring them to market.

Yeah.

So let's look at what is on the to-do list for him.

He's managing a $4 trillion company.

So number one is manage the AI transition.

AI has the potential to blow everything that Apple has been doing for the past couple of decades up and is going to potentially revolutionize the tech sector.
