After Deepseek, a Chinese start-up called Butterfly Effect introduced an AI named Manus AI. This agent, capable of handling various tasks and with great autonomy, competes with OpenAI's DeepResearch. China continues to be at the center of news about artificial intelligence. Earlier this year, the world discovered Deepseek and its reasoning model. A remarkable success for a high-performing LLM trained at a low cost. This weekend, another Chinese start-up, Butterfly Effect, made headlines, especially with its Manus AI model. In a video, its founder, Xiao Hong, introduces this LLM as "the first general AI agent," capable of managing multiple tasks autonomously.
In this presentation, Manus is capable of several things. It can recommend the best candidate for a job after ingesting, opening, and reading job applications, then categorize individuals in a text document before reformatting its recommendations into a spreadsheet. Another use case involves preparing a document on available real estate after a user provides their requirements, location, and budget. Finally, the last use case proposes correlating various stock prices of companies (including Nvidia), formatting them into a report, and creating a website to present them on a webpage.

I think it’s quite functional, and once further developed, it could serve as a highly effective assistant, especially for small agencies. I haven’t received an invite code yet, so I’m waiting as well—can’t wait to try it out!
 
Interesting to see more competition popping up; it'll be fun watching these AI duke it out in real-world scenarios.
 
Cant imagine how AI goes to this time next year. I guess, link building can be done by AI too, without Google even recognize and punish ha ha.
 
Chinese start-ups like Deepseek and Butterfly Effect excel at copying American innovations and undercutting prices, which works to our advantage, especially with Deepseek's affordable APIs. As for Manus AI, it's essentially just a wrapper for Browseruse, tailored for non-technical users.
 
Although there are many doubts about this country, we cannot deny that they are very good, the evidence from AI shows that their people are very good, everyone who uses it feels excited about the convenience, humor, sharp images and videos,...
 
Manus AI’s autonomy is legitimate — job screenings, real estate documents and stock reports show it’s more than just a chatbot, outperforming DeepResearch in versatility and even speed. From DeepSeek to Manus, China’s AI push is demonstrating strength: low cost, state backing and real-world usefulness.
 
Many people in China use it to make PPTs, write scripts, and make short videos. It is very useful.
 
What is crazy, is that Manus is able to run autonomously after an instruction. So, for example, it can read multiple books and create summaries for these books. It can be executed to perform tasks such as sorting through resumes, booking tickets, etc.
AI and it's usage for automation is reaching crazy heights and we are just at the beginning stage !
It now has a US$39 monthly plan called Manus Starter and a US$199 premium plan called Manus Pro. It also has a mobile app for iOS users.
 
AI is gradually taking over alot of things today, and is making life smooth for many
LFG
 
It is undeniable that the Chinese are very good. We should learn, should join hands to develop, besides that we should also be on guard.
 
I got access a couple of days ago and not impressed…. The speed it took to get results was pretty horrible. It could be the server workload not sure but will give it another try later on… took me almost 5 minutes to get an answer for the differences between ChatGPT and manus.
