[^1]\n\nTim Cook will transition to the role of executive chairman of Apple's board of directors following his departure as CEO.

[^3]\n\nKekoso is a voice-to-text application for macOS that requires macOS 14.4 or later and Apple silicon hardware. [^4]\n\nKekoso processes all audio transcription and recognition locally on the user's Mac using the Neural Engine, without uploading data to external servers. [^5]\n\nApple reported its strongest June quarter ever with double-digit revenue growth across iPhone, Mac, and Services in every geography. [^6]\n\nJohn Ternus joined Apple in 2001 and spent 25 years inside the company before his promotion to CEO. [^7]\n\nPerplexity recommends that users utilize a machine with at least 32GB of unified memory to support the Hybrid Compute feature. [^8]\n\nThe Hybrid Compute feature is currently available exclusively on Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 15. [^9]\n\nThe application costs $29 as a one-time purchase, with no subscription fees or monthly charges. [^10]\n\nThe Hybrid Compute feature is currently available to Perplexity Pro subscribers. [^11]\n\nKekoso includes a feature to record calls and separate speaker streams, transcribing both the user's microphone input and the remote party's audio. [^12]",
