Elon Musk says his dog “Floki” is Twitter’s new CEO
Twitter CEO Elon Musk has claimed that his dog is now the CEO of popular micro-blogging platform Twitter. Musk, who bought the platform for an impressive $44 billion last year, made the remark in an impromptu interview with the BBC in which he commented on an inquiry about his position as CEO.
Tesla boss Elon Musk responded to the inquiry by saying: “I went down. I keep saying I’m not the CEO of Twitter, my dog is the CEO of Twitter.” Earlier, Musk tweeted a photoshopped image of his dog Floki as CEO.
Since taking over Twitter, Musk has been active on the platform to share his thoughts on various topics and promote his various business ventures. Recently, he even changed the platform’s logo from the iconic blue bird to a cryptocurrency symbol.
Twitter CEO Elon Musk also told the BBC that using Twitter has been “quite painful” and a “roller coaster”. The UK-based media described the interview as “last minute” and was broadcast live on Twitter Spaces.
“(The pain level) has been very high, this has not been any kind of celebration,” Musk said, according to the BBC. “It hasn’t been boring. It’s been quite a rollercoaster. (It’s been) a really quite stressful situation over the last few months,” Musk told the BBC, but said buying Twitter was the right thing to do.
Elon Musk also said he is open to the idea of selling the company to the right person if and when the right person comes along. The interview was filmed and recorded at Twitter’s headquarters in San Francisco, with over three million listeners in attendance.
Musk also said that he sometimes sleeps in the office and has a spot in the library that many people don’t frequent.
