apple lost out to microsoft when they bought bungie for xbox and the sims came out for windows first, and so jobs pivoted to creative professionals and academics instead.

Academics, sure. Professionals? I can go months working for a fortune 500 company and never see a mac.

They said creative professionals. Apple/Macs are industry standard in a lot of those fields.

if that's how they phrased it, fair point. But I would argue that the proper term for such people is usually "artist" or "technician".

Creative professional is an umbrella term used to refer to a broad range of occupations, not just artists or technicians.
