RECAP on Last MidJourney Article: The article discusses the release of Midjourney V5, highlighting improvements such as a broader stylistic range, higher image quality, and reduced text artifacts. The update addresses the issue with hands and fingers and showcases high-resolution photos and photorealistic quality. The developers emphasize the importance of user feedback for ongoing improvements to the model.
MidJourney, the popular image-generating artificial intelligence, has just released its highly anticipated version 5.1. This update brings a host of exciting new features, many of which were requested by the community.
Let’s delve into the details and explore what’s new with MidJourney 5.1.
One of the main focuses of the MJ team in recent months has been improving the interpretation of text prompts.
Mid Journey reaching new levels
With MidJourney 5.1, they have reached a new level of understanding, resulting in images that align even more closely with the user’s requests. This means that the generated images now display more specific details, making them even more tailored to the user’s needs.
But that’s not all. The team at MidJourney also recognizes that some users prefer to see high-quality images without providing an extensively detailed description. If you fall into this category, here’s some good news for you. MidJourney 5.1 is now capable of creating very complex images with simple prompts. This is especially great for users who are just starting to interact with this powerful AI tool.
The latest version of MidJourney also brings significant improvements in image sharpness, reducing unwanted borders and text artifacts. This means that the generated images will have a crisper and cleaner appearance, providing a more visually pleasing experience for users.
To activate MidJourney 5.1, simply enter your prompt and then navigate to the ‘settings’ section, where you can click on ‘version 5.1′.
It’s important to note that MidJourney 5.1 is still in the testing phase, and the creators intend to evaluate its performance in the coming weeks. As a result, ‘version 5.0′ remains available to everyone and is still the ‘default option’. Users will need to manually enable version 5.1 if they wish to experience its new features.
New AI Moderator
One of the exciting additions in MidJourney 5.1 is the debut of a new AI moderator. This moderator, powered by artificial intelligence, brings enhanced capabilities in understanding contexts. Unlike the previous system, which relied on blocking specific words, the new AI moderator can comprehend words in context, making it smarter and more nuanced in its decision-making. This improvement ensures that the moderation system is more effective in blocking inappropriate or prohibited content.
Here’s how the revamped moderation system in MidJourney 5.1 works. A basic AI analyzes all text requests and issues an alert if it deems a prompt inappropriate based on its rules. However, users have the option to submit an appeal, which grants access to a more complex and intelligent moderation AI. This advanced AI has the ability to determine whether the prompt is compliant or not. Due to the increased resource requirements, users are limited to a maximum of 5 appeals every 24 hours, although this number may vary depending on server traffic.
Let’s see some funny examples from this Version:
1. Elon Musk in Mars
2. Trump Dancing
For some reason the realism in the portrayal of Trump is way more accurate compared to the Elon Musk’s portrayal, but MidJourney has obviously managed to go a long way with the realism!
In addition to these exciting updates, MidJourney 5.1 introduces the integration of ChatGPT, a cutting-edge AI technology from OpenAI. This integration allows users to enter text into the app, generating customized images that correspond to the input. With ChatGPT’s algorithm, MidJourney 5.1 now offers the option to input specific elements or scenes to create unique and personalized artwork. This integration of text enhances accessibility and opens up new creative possibilities for artists and creators.
In Conclusion
The new set of tools in MidJourney 5.1 enables users, including art directors and artists, to fully customize their images. They can add or remove elements, upgrade existing elements, adjust colors and lighting, and even apply different artistic styles to achieve the desired aesthetic. This level of control empowers users to create artwork that aligns perfectly with their artistic vision and project requirements.
Moreover, MidJourney 5.1 introduces an enhanced collaboration feature, allowing several users to work on one project simultaneously. Whether it’s a team of artists working on a creative campaign or students collaborating on a design project, this feature promotes seamless teamwork and boosts productivity. Users can easily share their projects with others, enabling real-time feedback and iterative improvements.
To make the user experience even more delightful, MidJourney 5.1 includes a revamped user interface (UI) with a clean and intuitive design. The UI has been optimized for ease of use, providing a smooth and seamless navigation experience. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced user, the new UI makes it easier than ever to explore the various features and unleash your creativity.
