AI Experts' Predictions: Top 5 AI Agents to Test in 2025, as Advised by Manus to Claude
As we move towards mid-2025, the landscape of advanced large language models (LLMs) is evolving rapidly, with each AI agent showcasing unique features and capabilities. Here's a look at some of the prominent players in this space and their key offerings.
Claude AI
The Claude family of models from Anthropic has seen significant progress, with the latest additions, Claude 3.5 and Claude 4, making waves in the industry.
- Claude 3.5 Sonnet excels at flexible, rapid coding and multitasking, including a "Computer Use" beta that enables it to control PC applications autonomously for complex workflows.
- The Claude 4 series, released in 2025, includes Opus 4 (flagship, highest-tier) and Sonnet 4 (generalist, free and paid tiers). It offers a massive ~200K token context window, hybrid reasoning modes (near-instant vs extended thinking), advanced safety controls, and new features like “thinking summaries” that improve transparency during multi-step reasoning.
- Claude Opus 4.1 (August 2025) improves performance for complex analysis and creative tasks and is integrated in platforms like GitHub Copilot and cloud offerings (Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI).
ChatGPT Pro (GPT-4.5)
While specific feature details for GPT-4.5 were not found, given OpenAI's typical versioning, GPT-4.5 is likely to build on GPT-4 with improvements in reasoning, safety, and speed but without major paradigm changes publicly detailed as of August 2025.
Manus AI, Perplexity Pro, and Devin
Currently, there is limited authoritative data available for these AI agents, indicating they may be less documented, niche, or newly emerging products without broad public technical disclosures by mid-2025.
In conclusion, the Claude 3.5 and Claude 4 models from Anthropic stand out for their hybrid reasoning, expansive context windows, coding specialization, and advanced safety and transparency features. ChatGPT Pro (GPT-4.5) is presumably an enhanced GPT-4 variant but lacks current detailed public feature disclosures. Further information on Manus AI, Perplexity Pro, and Devin is not widely available as of August 2025.
