These will be big shoes to fill and the timing of Cook exiting stage left as CEO could make sense but also creates questions. Apple is making a major transition on its AI strategy and longtime CEO and legendary Cook leaving now is a surprise. We agree with Ternus as the pick

Why it worked

Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: corporate
Written for: People building with AI

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

More from Dan Ives

A day after SK Hynik overtook Samsung as South Korea's most valuable listed company and the KOSPI hit its historic 9K record, today the tech heavy index is down ~10%. Clearly this will cause selling pressure for US tech stocks. We remain firmly bullish to own AI tech winners🐂🏆

Heading into 2026 this marks a monster year ahead for Tesla/Musk as the autonomous and robotics chapter begins. We believe Tesla hits a $2 trillion market cap in 2026 and in a bull case scenario $3 trillion by end of 2026...as the AI chapter takes hold at TSLA🍿🔥🏆🐂 @elonmusk

Most bullish Nvidia call given Blackwell and Rubin demand off the charts and a $500 billion backlog (and building quickly) into FY26. Anyone saying AI Bubble is not listening to this call/seeing the numbers of trillions of more demand per Jensen coming down the road. 🔥🏆🐂🍿🎯

Massive beat and raise Nvidia. $3 billion Jan guidance raise well above whisper (~$1.8 billion) and commentary in PR shows this AI Revolution still in early innings. Major validation moment from the Godfather of AI Jensen and Nvidia. Conf call will be key re:China, demand 🐂🔥

This is a Capex supercycle for tech fueling the AI Revolution. If ur focused on what this does to FCF and earnings ur missing the big picture. Year 3 of a 8-10 year AI buildout. A true 4th Industrial Revolution but the bears in hibernation mode in their caves will miss it 🔥🏆🐂

Raising price target on Apple to $270 reflecting incremental confidence in the India supply chain situation that could now take the worst case scenario off the table for iPhone tariffs...and this has been a core Street fear over the last month. China demand improving..key 🍎🍏🐂
