China’s latest AI sensation, Manus, has been making waves globally.  Some call it a game-changer, an autonomous AI agent capable of planning, making decisions, and executing real-world tasks, which is a step beyond traditional AI assistants.

But is it truly revolutionary, or just clever marketing?

In the latest episode of Inspiring Tech Leaders, I dive deep into Manus’ potential, controversies, and the bigger picture of China’s AI ambitions.

This episode explores the following:

💡  What is Manus?  A powerful AI agent developed by Butterfly Effect, a little-known Chinese startup.

💡  Why does it matter?  China is shifting from Large Language Models (LLMs) to AI agents that act, not just predict.

💡  The controversy includes limited access, invite codes being resold, social media bans, and questions about its real capabilities.

💡  Are we witnessing the next big leap in AI, or is this another overhyped product?

AI agents like Manus could change how we interact with technology, but the jury is still out.

What about you?  Do you think Manus is the future of AI, or just another viral moment?
