Midjourney Realism: August 2022 vs March 2023

Midjourney V5: Photos of Cape Town
Midjourney V5 (Version 5) was recently released and I wanted to test it out. I decided to see how well it could do creating photographs of Cape Town.

GPT-4 story and Midjourney images: Humans vs Robots
I was playing around making 1970s science fiction illustrations in Midjourney using around the theme of "human workers rising up against their cruel robot masters in the far future. 1970s science fiction illustration".

GPT-4 is the latest version of Open AI's popular and widely used tool ChatGPT. ChatGPT allows users to receive written feedback from most prompts and has the potential to revolutionize many industries and out-compete human workers. This seems like a good segway into the topic of this blog post about Midjourney and GPT-4; humans vs robots.

DALL-E 2 vs Midjourney
I wanted to compare DALL-E 2 vs Midjourney, as Midjourney has recently enabled users to use --test and --testp to upgrade their images and make them much more realistic. Using --test and --testp (test being a more creative improvement and testp leaning towards more photorealistic improvement) and comparing to current DALL-E 2 outputs.
