Midjourney V6, the latest version of the image generation AI model, has been released by the research collective founded by David Holz. The update includes improved and more realistic images, as well as the ability to generate legible text within images. Users can enable V6 by typing a slash command or manually typing v6 after their prompts. The update also introduces new features such as improved prompt following, coherence, and model knowledge, as well as minor text drawing ability. A new prompting method has been developed, requiring users to relearn how to prompt. Initial results of V6 have been underwhelming for some users, but others have posted impressive results on social media. V6 is an alpha test and will undergo frequent changes. Some features from the previous version are currently missing but will be added in later updates. Midjourney remains a leading AI art generator despite facing competition and legal challenges.
