In early 2025, the news that Meta acquired Manus AI for approximately $2 billion shook the tech industry. This startup achieved an astonishing growth from zero to $100 million in annual recurring revenue in just 8 months, but what is truly remarkable is its technological focus: autonomous artificial intelligence agents. This marks a significant shift in AI from passive responses to proactive execution, with tech giants betting on a future where AI "acts" rather than just "talks." Technology Architecture: Layered Planning and Multimodal Execution Manus's core technological breakthrough lies in its layered task planning system. Unlike large language models that generate answers in a single shot, Manus decomposes complex goals into executable sub-tasks arranged in hierarchical layers, dynamically adjusting strategies based on environmental feedback during execution. This design enables the system to handle unprecedentedly complex task combinations, rather than merely executing pre-set scripts. Multimodal
