Manous to Leave Meta for Independence
Manous Company is preparing to separate from Meta and return to being an independent entity in the field of artificial intelligence, following Chinese authorities' demand in April for Meta to back out of its $2 billion acquisition. Meta had acquired Manous in December 2022; the company develops general-purpose AI agents. However, Chinese authorities initiated an investigation into whether the deal complied with local laws, resulting in a request to rescind it. As part of the separation process, some users will need to back up their data generated after December 29, 2025, to comply with local regulations. This move comes amid Beijing's tightening of technology export controls and ongoing competition between the United States and China for talent and technology in AI. It was expected that Meta would incorporate Manous technology into its products, but the delay in the deal has led the company to revert to its independent status.
