Midjourney Introduction
Midjourney is an AI drawing platform that generates images from natural language descriptions. Based on Transformer model and GAN (Generative Adversarial Network) technology. Founded by a small self-funded team focused on design, human infrastructure and artificial intelligence. It consists of 11 full-time employees and a team of excellent technical consultants.
It was officially launched as a server on Discord on March 14, 2022. Users can directly register Discord and join Midjourney's server to start AI creation, whether it is used to create operational posters, UI interfaces, 3D designs, It can easily handle two dimensions, science fiction scenes, designed characters, NFT, urban architecture, etc.
As long as we enter text, it will automatically generate corresponding pictures for us. The pictures produced by AI are very stunning. And because it runs on the discord platform, we don’t need to install any software or have anything on the computer. Graphics cards can be used on any computer or mobile phone. Whether designers, illustrators or the general public should experience it.
Midjourney's main features
- Generate images based on text description: You can enter a description like "a quaint mountain cabin" and Midjourney will generate the corresponding image.
- Generate a picture sequence or storyboard: You can enter a series of text descriptions and Midjourney will generate a set of related pictures to form a picture story or concept map.
- Generate pictures of different styles: You can specify the style of the generated pictures in the description, such as "cartoon style", "three-dimensional style", etc., and Midjourney will generate pictures of the corresponding style.
- Generate high-resolution images: Midjourney can generate high-definition images with a resolution of 4000x4000 pixels.
- Artificial Intelligence Painting Assistant: Midjourney's picture generation results are not realistic enough, but they can be used as creative inspiration and materials for use by artificial intelligence-assisted painting software.

Summarize
Midjourney is currently one of the leading systems in the field of image generation. But the pictures it generates are not very realistic, and the pictures generated by artificial intelligence still cannot completely replace human artists. Therefore, Midjourney is more suitable as a creative tool for human artists and designers. Overall, Midjourney is a very creative and imaginative AI system that is worth paying attention to and trying.
