There is some possibility that Tim Cook will resign or be fired.

    This can be a very good thing or a very bad thing.

    For this to be a good thing the shareholders would need to agree to a technical CEO rather than a marketing one and that comes with the wee lil' issue of raining on their AI parade. If Tim Cook goes his replacement will be even worse.

    As much as I dislike Steve Jobs personally, Apple needs someone at the helm who is product and customer experience oriented like he was. Obviously, technical know-how is good, but someone exclusively technical would flounder. Tim Cook is a supply chain guy. His replacement would almost certainly be someone marketing oriented, since innovation no longer drives Apple. Sales do.
