AI Summary
Summarized by AI from the source belowChina's National Development and Reform Commission has mandated Meta (META) to unwind its $2 billion acquisition of AI startup Manus, citing laws against foreign investment. This decision reflects growing scrutiny from both China and the U.S., where American investors are restricted from supporting Chinese AI firms. As a result, Meta's shares fell 0.2% in premarket trading. Manus reportedly achieved over $100 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) within eight months of launching its product, marking a significant milestone in the AI sector.
