Midjourney is one of the most popular text-to-image AI services online. Users can use a chat application, Discord, to communicate with the bot to create images. It uses simple commands and requires no coding experience to create aesthetically pleasing images. Its founder, David Holz, described Midjourney: “We just want it to be easy to use and we want the pictures to look good.”
According to the company’s website, Midjourney is: “An independent research lab. Exploring new mediums of thought. Expanding the imaginative powers of the human species.” Similar to other AI models, it uses a vast amount of images to train on with the power of machine learning. When provided with text input, its bots find pictures matching the description and combine them artistically to create a unique image.
