Imagine Weekly – Issue 19 [October 13th]

Welcome to Issue 19 of Imagine Weekly 👋

Hi again,

Midjourney is bustling with exciting projects and developments, as shared in their recent office hours. I hope you enjoy this issue.

In this issue you’ll find:

  • 📖 TL;DR; Weekly Recap of the Office Hours (or the extended recap)

  • 🛠️ Tools to explore

  • 🎨 Some new srefs to tinker with

📅 Office Hours TL;DR; Recap 2024-10-09

Short-Term Goals: Midjourney will soon introduce a web-only editor for importing and editing external images with depth-sensing, initially for Pro/Mega subscribers, alongside new personalization features and a workflow overhaul with UI changes and 'Batch8' grids (you get 8 images instead of 4 for each prompt).

Mid-Term Goals: Version 7 is nearing completion with improved multi-lingual capabilities and image coherence, video and 3D training are underway, demographic survey results will inform a new 'demographic explorer' tool, and enhancements to the Explore pages and Web UI are planned, with a call for new team members with front-end and design skills.

Long-Term Vision: Looking ahead, Midjourney is developing hardware and apps for web and mobile, seeking hardware experts, and working on secret projects to integrate humans and AI, with one aiming to improve the world and another potentially controversial, alongside a cryptic reference to "going inside The Orb".

Dogan always posts great stuff, this time he’s making a call for your best srefs. Go and join the party! There are many great styles to discover, too!

Check this out Photo vs. Editorial Photo! Thanks for sharing Tatiana. To fine tune an image it’s sometimes just one word.

Not the first one but it certainly looks pretty good!
