The one thing I will say that did feel slightly different is that Ternus came out swinging with a point of view on AI. The first thing he came out with was about the intelligent personal hub. Now, here's the big difference between Tim Cook and John Ternus in terms of their management style. You're inside Apple, you're an executive, you'll come to him with an idea, you'll come to him with a viewpoint, a decision, an opinion, and he'll just pepper you with more questions. He won't make a singular decision in many cases. It's very much communal decision-making, collaborative decision-making. John Ternus, if you come to him and you want him to make a decision, he'll make a decision.
