“Ternus, the current head of hardware engineering who has been at Apple for 25 years, will take over on 1 September and Cook will become executive …”
CORROBORATED
The web search results support the key elements: Ternus taking over, Cook becoming executive chairman, and the date being September 1st. The claim that Ternus has been at Apple for 25 years is contradicted by the Wikipedia entry stating he joined in 2001 (making him over 23 years, not 25, as of 2024, but the core transfer details are corroborated).
