China's Manus AI, developed by Monica, is generating buzz as an invite-only multi-agent AI product. This AI agent is designed to autonomously tackle complex, real-world tasks by operating as a multi-agent system. It utilizes a planner optimized for strategic reasoning, and an executor driven by Claude 3.5 Sonnet, incorporating code execution, web browsing, and multi-file code management.
The AI agent has sparked considerable global attention, igniting discussions about its technological and ethical implications, as well as its potential impact on the AI landscape. Manus reportedly outperformed OpenAI's o3-powered Deep Research agent on benchmarks, as showcased on the Manus website, leading some to believe it is among the most effective autonomous agents currently available. However, there is some skepticism due to it appearing to be a Claude wrapper with a jailbreak and tools optimized for the GAIA benchmark.
