Manus AI goes beyond chatbots to take on real-world tasks

China's Manus AI represents a big leap from chatbots to autonomous agents capable of executing real-world tasks with minimal human intervention.

AI Agents continue to dominate the news in the AI world, and here’s another one thatโ€™s making waves: Manus AI.

I recently got beta access to test Manus, and itโ€™s impressive.

What exactly is Manus AI?

Manus is an autonomous AI assistant that can independently perform complex tasks by breaking them down into steps, essentially acting like your digital assistant.

Built on Claude 3.7 and other models, Manus autonomously creates task lists and executes them within a virtual browser. Think ChatGPT Operator, but smarter and more versatile.

How Manus works:

  1. Give it a task โ€“ like analysing reviews or researching property markets.
  2. Manus creates a detailed to-do list and independently completes each step.
  3. Receive comprehensive results โ€“ like sentiment reports or detailed property analyses.

In this video, I assigned Manus a couple of real estate tasks, such as performing an analysis and generating detailed property market reports.

What youโ€™ll see in this video

  • Autonomous Task Completion: Watch Manus independently complete detailed tasks such as sentiment analysis and comprehensive market research.
  • Real-Time Updates: See Manus actively update its task list while informing you of progress.
  • Enhanced Reporting: Explore how Manus might approach finding the best agent in a suburb and how it might act as a buyers agent assistant.

Tools like Manus show how quickly AI can โ€œact aloneโ€ as a practical assistant for many tasks.

One thing is for sure: the days of manually sifting through data, reviews, or even choosing agents are fast being replaced by these smart assistants.

Happy Hunting ๐Ÿš€
