Thanks. I guess the title was a bit clickbaity. Not my intention.
Now that Tesla is worth a lot less. Apple will acquire them. Elon will take over as CEO 🤣
He’s currently go incentive to stick around a bit longer.
I’m sure it’s a stressful job (or at least a lot of weight to carry), and we certainly don’t know his personal goals, but my best guess is that it doesn’t seem likely that he’s done yet, or at least a couple more years at the very minimum.

For better or worse, there’s next to no journalistic integrity on social media.
As long as you’re not attacking anyone or posting violent or sexual imagery, you can pretty much say and do what you want.
The average user on YouTube just wants to be entertained and does not look into the story they’re being told.
The claim is completely made up but works as a great YouTube title and thumbnail to bait us in since nobody else is posting this video (because it’s a flat out lie).
Better yet, can you stop posts like this one from appearing on the front page banner?
I think it's just an automatically generated list of non-News threads that have recent posts. I've asked other staff for confirmation.
Until I have a definitive answer, you can disable the "banner" by going to the Front Page, scrolling to the bottom of the page, and clicking the [ Featured On/Off ] link. Click it again to re-enable the "banner".
Yes.
First all was widely rumoured to take over about two years before cOok did.
Also there was a lame rumor of Jobs contracting aids with some forged hospital document which was posted on a thread here on this site. After a few short pages was fully deleted by the mods.
this literally has to be the worst apple oriented channel on youtube, they always have misleading titles and thumbnails and often repeat old news as if they were new
I’m going to be like the people who boycott a movie without having seen it.
I didn’t watch the video yet I don’t believe it 🤪

The AR/VR headset will almost certainly be his final 'big' product launch. Products like Apple Watch and features like Crash Detection are really symbolic of his drive to help more and more people, though I believe the headset will be the culmination of a lot of technologies and ideas that Apple has built up over the years, which will enable scenarios that we haven't yet considered.
But the video and even the idea that he will step down sooner rather than later doesn't make sense to me. Then again, what 'soon' means is relative.

The WSJ/Mark Gurman will break the news before any random YouTuber does when it comes time for Tim Apple to step down...LOL.

Rumored to be Jeff Williams.
This YouTuber has a lot of clickbait and false information. It went around a year or two again that Tim Cooke was going to retire after seeing the launch of the next big thing which might be a car or VR headset. We do not know because it was from leakers and analysts. All are speculations
We could only be so lucky.
Nothing could possibly be better for Apple right now than a change in leadership. Tim Cook's bean counting approach to Apple has made shareholders happy by minimizing risk and made customers furious by refusing to give them what they ask for.
Things customers want:
- Reasonable prices
- Stable software releases
- Value progression
- Comprehensible product lineups
- More attention to product lines other than iPhone
- New product lines in new categories.
Tim Cook isn't interested in any of these because they cost the company money to deliver, and do little to appease shareholders.
