Apple on Monday named insider John Ternus as its next CEO, tapping the long-time hardware chief to steer the company after Tim Cook as the iPhone maker gears up for an industry change spurred by artificial intelligence.
Ternus, who joined Apple in 2001 and has been a quiet but steadfast behind-the-scenes presence in improving its products over the years, has played a key role in reigniting sales of products such as Apple’s Mac computers, which have gained market share against PCs.
