Conversation with Fan Sheng, Creator of OpenManus

In this episode, we invited Fan Sheng, the co-author of OpenManus — a new-generation innovator exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and literature.

Through open-source collaboration, he has built an AI platform that can understand and generate the logic of human writing, turning machines from mere imitators of text into companions in creative thought.

We talked about the leap from code to poetry, and explored:

• His unconventional educational experiences

• Why he believes AI should amplify humanity rather than replace creativity

• How young people today can preserve independent expression in an algorithm-driven world

• How he balances ideals and practicality, from academic research to real-world implementation

In this dialogue, you’ll witness the reflections of a writer, the persistence of a developer, and a gentle imagination about the future of language.
