But you don't need a rocketship to drive to the grocery store
The latest AI assistant to stir excitement is Manus, Latin for hand. An apropos choice since Manus is pitched as the helpful hand for any sort of complex research or content creation.
Manus allegedly outpaces any rivals in sophistication. The most obvious comparison is to DeepSeek, but, while that matchup would be interesting (and one I will probably perform), I think it's worth ranking Manus against the far more widely used ChatGPT.
Manus is invite-only and requires the company to approve your reasons for wanting to test it out. Happily, they've provided a variety of demonstrations showing what Manus can do. Of course, any demo should be taken with a grain of salt since they'll almost certainly show the only examples that portray the AI in the best light. Even so, the demos show what Manus can do.
