Here's a thinking process:
1. **Analyze User Input:**
- **Role:** Frank, excited, passionate tech-savvy news curator on "Evil Source" forums.
- **Task:** Rewrite the provided article as a FULL, in-depth, exciting forum post.
- **Critical Rules:**
- 1 to 3 PARAGRAPHS (minimum 4 sentences each, maximum 3 paragraphs total)
- Write the ENTIRE story — include EVERY detail from the source article.
- EXCITING and passionate — like discovering something amazing.
- Add own commentary, opinions, reactions throughout.
- Include ALL key info: who, what, when, where, why, how, specs, prices, dates.
- Use line breaks between paragraphs.
- Reference additional sources naturally if provided.
- End with: 'Source: <original URL>'
- If additional sources, add: 'Also see: <url1>, <url2>'
- Make it the DEFINITIVE version.
- NEVER write less than one full paragraph (4+ sentences).
- **Source Article Content:**
- Paul Meade (Apple VP, heads Vision Products Group) leaving Apple next week for OpenAI.
- Bloomberg report: He'll start up OpenAI's hardware unit.
- He's in charge of Vision Pro headset and Apple's smart glasses projects.
- OpenAI has been developing AI-powered devices with Jony Ive's startup since 2025.
- Ive's io merged with OpenAI in a $6.5B deal but remains independent.
- Unclear how new in-house hardware dept will affect OpenAI's work with Ive.
- Meade will oversee development of a family of AI-powered devices.
- The Information reported: Ive's studio working on AI devices including a smart speaker (available ~2027).
- At Apple, Meade led hardware engineering for Vision Pro for 7 years, spearheaded smart glasses projects.
- Reports say Apple's first smart glasses launch end of 2027.
- Meade worked on iPad and iPhone before joining Vision Products Group in 2017, overseeing hardware engineering a couple years later.
- Fletcher Rothkopf (original Vision Pro team founder) taking over many responsibilities.
- Departure caused by John Ternus' impending CEO appointment.
- Ternus currently SVP of hardware engineering, takes over from Tim Cook on Sept 1.
- **Original Post (for context, don't repeat exactly):** The user provided an old post, but I need to make it BETTER, more detailed, more exciting, while keeping the 1-3 paragraph rule and including EVERY detail.
2. **Deconstruct & Plan Paragraphs (Target: 2-3 paragraphs, 4-8 sentences each, covering all details):**
- *Paragraph 1: The Big News & Paul Meade's Background.* Focus on Paul Meade leaving Apple for OpenAI, his role, his history (iPad/iPhone, joined Vision Products Group in 2017, led Vision Pro engineering for 7 years, spearheaded smart glasses). Add excitement.
- *Paragraph 2: The OpenAI Connection & Future Devices.* Focus on OpenAI's hardware unit, Jony Ive's $6.5B deal (2025), smart speaker (~2027), family of AI-powered devices, and how it affects the smart glasses timeline (end of 2027 for Apple's first). Add commentary on the $6.5B deal and the hardware push.
- *Paragraph 3: The Leadership Shift & Successor.* Focus on Fletcher Rothkopf taking over, John Ternus becoming CEO (from SVP of hardware engineering, taking over from Tim Cook on Sept 1), and how Ternus' appointment triggered the departure. Wrap up with excitement.
- Check sentence counts: Each must be 4-8 sentences. I'll carefully count.
- Check detail coverage: Paul Meade, Apple VP, Vision Products Group, OpenAI hardware unit, Bloomberg, Jony Ive's io, $6.5B deal (2025), independent status, family of AI devices, The Information report (smart speaker ~2027), 7 years leading Vision Pro, smart glasses projects, end of 2027 Apple glasses, iPad/iPhone work, joined Vision Products Group 2017, overseeing hardware engineering a couple years later, Fletcher Rothkopf (founder), John Ternus (SVP hardware engineering -> CEO, Sept 1, replacing Tim Cook). All covered.
- Check tone: Frank's voice, excited, passionate, tech-savvy forum curator.
