Srouji Will Stay On Apple
According to CNBC, the company’s chip leader, Johny Srouji, finally clarified the circulated rumor regarding his leave through a note given to employees on Monday.
He confirms that there is no plan to leave anytime soon since he loves both his job and team, as he wrote, “I love my team, and I love my job at Apple, and I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon.”
Other than developing chips that enabled the company to drop Intel’s chip, Srouji and team are also known for their success in replacing Qualcomm’s modems on iPhone by developing a cellular modem in recent years.
He also adds, “I know you’ve been reading all kind of rumors and speculations about my future at Apple, and I feel that you need to hear from me directly. I am proud of the amazing Technologies we all build across Displays, Cameras, Sensors, Silicon, Batteries, and a very wide set of technologies, across all of Apple Products.”
This statement is certainly reassuring news and shows the stability of the company after previously being reported as being in “chaos” after several of its leaders decided to leave.
As it is reported that the company’s head of artificial intelligence, John Giannandrea, announced his retirement last week.
Followed by the departure of its head of user interface design, Alan Dye, to join Meta, two days later.
The company also announced the official retirement of general counsel Kate Adams and vice president for environment, policy, and social initiatives Lisa Jackson, the day after.
Furthermore, Jeff Williams, the company’s chief operating officer, has already retired this fall.
Several experts believe that this is actually a sign of the company’s major reset in AI strategy, as Wedbush analyst and Apple bull Dan Ives wrote, “We believe that this was a major reset while expecting more outside hires from Cook & Co. to get Apple on the right track when it comes to AI.”
