Apple ‘fires’ entire VR team as John Ternus takes over as CEO from Tim Cook

Apple has laid off at least 60 employees tied to its VR development team, with an entire group working on virtual reality reportedly cut just days before John Ternus takes over as CEO on September 1. The move comes as Apple shifts resources toward Siri AI and smart glasses, leaving Apple Vision Pro, the $3,699 headset Tim Cook once called “tomorrow’s technology today,” with a visibly shrinking team behind it.
