Comparing Craiyon, DALL-E 2, and Midjourney

I thought I’d add photos from three AI image generators; Craiyon, DALL-E 2 and Midjourney.

How they describe themselves;

  • “Craiyon, formerly DALL·E mini, is an AI model that can draw images from any text prompt!”
  • “DALL·E 2 is a new AI system that can create realistic images and art from a description in natural language.
  • Midjourney is an independent research lab exploring new mediums of thought and expanding the imaginative powers of the human species.”

My relatively uninformed opinions of them;

  • Craiyon is good for funny and topical images, but images lack detail.
  • DALL-E 2 can create some almost photo-realistic images, but can lack artistic imagination.
  • Midjourney creates stunning images that lean towards fantasy art rather than the real world.

In this post I just wanted to share some examples of the images produced by these three.
