Apple under Ternus: More products, more often, with a 'leaner' staff

Bloomberg reports on internal changes at Apple after John Ternus's first weeks as CEO. He wants more experimental products released year-round, fewer hires and a trimmed middle management, and is exploring AI to speed up development. Small-scale layoffs have already hit teams working on Siri, Vision Pro, Fitness+ and some AI software.

• Ternus wants year-round releases instead of spring and fall events
• Next 12 months: iPhone Duo, touchscreen MacBooks, smart glasses
• Layoffs of EPMs and cuts in Siri, Vision Pro and Fitness+ teams
• Plan to cut 5,000 AppleCare staff shelved amid AI support push
