Tim Cook isn't going to get fired, and Steve Jobs isn't rolling over in his grave


Tim Cook has constantly been criticized, most recently over Apple Intelligence, but always for just not being Steve Jobs — yet the fact that he isn't Jobs is what has made Apple the technological and financial juggernaut it is today.

"Steve [Jobs] founded Apple on the belief that the power of human creativity can solve even the biggest challenges — and that the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do," Cook continued. Plus, never forget that right back at the start of Apple, it was Steve Wozniak who wanted to give away his blueprints at the Homebrew Computer Club — and Jobs who insisted on selling them. In early 2025, an anonymous source claimed that Cook " cares about nothing" except the Apple Vision Pro, and more recently the company is said to have seven devices in the works.
