Apple's AI strategy faces critical execution risk as Mike Rockwell, the executive leading the strategic Siri revamp, has considered stepping back due to organizational restructuring and reporting concerns under Craig Federighi. This leadership instability, coupled with recent executive shuffles and the underperformance of Vision Pro, signals uncertainty in Apple's AI roadmap and product innovation strategy at a pivotal moment for the company's post-iPhone future.
