 # Answer: Elon Musk currently runs several companies. As of my knowledge, he is the CEO and lead designer of SpaceX, the CEO and product architect of Tesla, Inc., the CEO and founder of Neuralink, and the CEO and founder of The Boring Company. However, please note that this information may change over time, so it's always good to verify the latest updates.
