Billionaire Elon Musk said on Monday in a filing that he will probably be the chief executive officer of Twitter, the social media company he recently acquired for $44 billion.
The move comes after Musk, who also runs Tesla and SpaceX, fired Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and other top company officials last week.
Musk previously modified his Twitter bio to “Chief Twit” in an indication alluding to this move.
Last week, Musk’s takeover of the social media company for $44 billion concluded a months-long saga.
Since then, Musk has hurried to start making changes at the corporate, which he had ridiculed for months for being slow to introduce product changes or take down spam accounts.
Musk’s teams began meeting with some employees to analyze Twitter’s software code and understand how facets of the platform worked, in keeping with two sources accustomed to the matter.
Some staff who spoke with Reuters said they’d received little communication from Musk or other leaders and were using news reports to piece together what was happening at the corporate.
