Message Object sending ephemeral message

In Typescript, I am trying to use Message Object to send ephemeral message but it seems like that is not possible Is there a way that I can make the messagecreate function able to execute with the Message object in sending ephemeral messages

export default new Event({
  name: Events.MessageCreate,
  async execute(message: Message): Promise<void> {
      // Not working
      await message.channel.send({
              content: `👤 <@${message.author.id}>\n`,
              ephemeral: true,
            });
    }
});

export default new Event({
  name: Events.MessageCreate,
  async execute(message: Message): Promise<void> {
      // Not working
      await message.channel.send({
              content: `👤 <@${message.author.id}>\n`,
              ephemeral: true,
            });
    }
});

is it possible to pass the execute with type Interaction instead? I cant seem to make tis work or is there any other workaround like from accesing through the global client? trying to send ephemeral messages through messageCreate function basically there are use case where user wont tag bot or wont trigger commands, just type some messages where the bot should respond with ephemeral I see, alright. Guess I need to think of a workaround
