Manus General Artificial Intelligence, the new product of the Chinese startup butterfly Effect, was quickly considered in the online space after the official launch of last week. This technology has been widely reflected not only in China, but around the world. Influential figures such as Jack Dorsey, Twitter co -founder, and Hugging Face, Victor Mastar, have praised its performance. Some have even called it Deepseek II, a comparison that represents the unexpected power and widespread impact of the tool.
What is a manus and what is the difference with other artificial intelligence?
Unlike chats such as ChatGpt and Deepseek, which use only one large language model, Manos is a general artificial intelligence agent that performs various tasks independently by combining several models, including Claude 3.5 SONNET and modified QWen Alibaba. It uses many factors that can operate automatically and have capabilities beyond simple text conversations.
However, access to manus is still very limited. Less than 1 % of people in the waiting list have received an invitation code, while the Discord channel has more than 2.5 members.
Experience of working with manus; A combination of intelligence and technical defects
MIT Technology Review received access to Manos and tested its performance. At first glance, this tool acts as an intelligent and efficient assistant that can perform different tasks. But sometimes it has misunderstandings, hasty decisions, and incomplete information processing. However, Manus provides a clear explanation of his arguments and can improve his performance by receiving feedback.
The manus interface is very similar to ChatGpt and Deepseek, with the history of conversations on the left and the input box in the center. Also, the tasks proposed by the manufacturer, from the development of business strategies to personalized audio meditation, are displayed on its homepage.
Testing of Manus performance in three actual tasks
Three different tasks were given to evaluate the performance of manus:
- Collecting a list of prominent Chinese technology reporters
- Search for real estate ads for a two -bedroom apartment in New York
- MIT MIT
Collecting Journalists’ List:
Manus initially offered only five names, along with five “special recommendations”. When asked why some reporters had no more information, he replied that he was “a little lazy” because of the time limit! After the request for more accuracy and comprehensiveness, a complete list of five reporters was presented, along with information about their media and their highlights.
Manus was also able to quickly apply requested modifications and allowed the output to be downloaded in Word and Excel. However, Paywall was in trouble in the face of news articles and was blocked by news sites.
Searching for apartment in New York:
Manus was able to provide a structured and useful list of available options. Initially, he interpreted the definition of “outdoor” very limited and only included a private terrace or balcony property. But after receiving feedback, it expanded the search criteria and offered the output in the “best general option”, “the best price”, and the “luxury option”. It took only 5 minutes, indicating the ability of manus to process structured data.
Selection of “Innovators under 5 years” listing candidates
This task created the biggest challenge for manus. The tool first examined the past lists, set a search strategy, and then suggested the candidates. But when searching for scientific articles and information behind Paywall, it faced restrictions.
After three hours of searching the Internet, Manos only offered three complete candidates. Repeatedly, a list of five names was made, but most of the candidates were of specific research institutes and areas, indicating the incomplete research process. Eventually, the search for four candidates from China was made, but the output included more media outlets than real innovators.
The strengths and weaknesses of the manus
Benefits:
- Transparency and High Interaction: Ability to observe and intervene in the process of tasks
- Ability to process complex information and conduct deep research
- Ability to customize results and store instructions for future use
- Low operating cost
Disadvantages:
- Repeated crashes and technical problems when loading heavy requests
- Inability to access the backwall content and sites with CAPTCHA
- Lower speed than ChatGpt DeepResearch
Is Manos a serious rival ChatGpt and Deepseek?
Manus is still in the early stages of development and has many technical challenges, but has high potential. If the development team can enhance the server infrastructure, manus can become a popular option for professional users and small teams.
On the other hand, the transparency of performance and the possibility of direct interaction with the decision -making process makes Manos feel more cooperative than many similar tools. These features make it an attractive option for internet research, data analysis, and complex tasks.
A bright future for Chinese artificial intelligence?
Manus is another step in the rapid development of Chinese companies in the AI. Contrary to the popular notion that China is merely imitating Western models, tools such as Manus show that Chinese companies are independently innovating in the field of autonomous artificial agents.
While there are still big technical challenges facing manus, this tool can draw a future path in which AI is not only responsive but also a real partner in performing complex tasks.
