I don’t know, unless I see it in action, I am inclined to say Manus is either marketing or psyops.

Edit: I am trying it now…for the one question I looked at, it seems to be hallucinating some references, but got others correct. But it didn’t answer the question with specificity, and just repeated information in a rote manner. I am not sure what’s the improvement over existing models, then. But it’s pretty good with capturing some niche details between the extraneous texts.
