What will Apple’s John Ternus era look like?

苹果的约翰·特努斯（John Ternus）时代将会是什么样？

It’s officially the Ternus era at Apple. Tim Cook stepped down as CEO this week, handing the company to former hardware chief John Ternus, whose first memo promised a “huge launch next week” — timing that puts Apple’s next iPhone event on his desk before he’s even settled in. 苹果正式进入了“特努斯时代”。蒂姆·库克（Tim Cook）本周卸任首席执行官，将公司交给了前硬件主管约翰·特努斯（John Ternus）。特努斯在第一份备忘录中承诺“下周将有重大发布”——这一时间点意味着他还没来得及安顿下来，苹果的下一场 iPhone 发布会就已经摆在了他的办公桌上。

Cook isn’t going far, though: he’s staying on as Executive Chairman, focused on the kind of policy relationships that recently turned something as small as a map label into a very public balancing act. All of which raises an obvious question: what does the Ternus era look like, and how much rope will shareholders give him to figure it out? 不过，库克并没有走远：他将留任执行董事长，专注于处理那些政策关系——最近，正是这类关系让一个微小的地图标注问题演变成了一场备受瞩目的平衡博弈。这一切引发了一个显而易见的问题：特努斯时代将会是什么样？股东们又会给他多少空间去摸索前行？

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, hosts Kirsten Korosec and Sean O’Kane unpack what Ternus is walking into, why he may actually be better positioned to make progress on software than hardware in this new AI era, and more of the week’s news. 在本期 TechCrunch 的《Equity》播客中，主持人克里斯汀·科罗塞克（Kirsten Korosec）和肖恩·奥凯恩（Sean O’Kane）深入探讨了特努斯所面临的局面，分析了为什么在这个人工智能新时代，他可能在软件领域比在硬件领域更有优势取得进展，并讨论了本周的其他新闻。
