Midjourney Releases New Unified AI Image Editor on the Web
Coming at a Contentious Time for Midjourney and AI Art Generally
Amid intensifying competition in the AI image generation space from the likes of Elon Musk’s permissive Grok-2 (powered by Black Forest Labs’ open-source Flux.1 model), one of the leaders is stepping up its game.
Midjourney, which is hailed by many AI artists and designers as the preeminent and highest quality AI image generator, last night unveiled a new, updated version of its website containing a new editor interface that unifies various existing features such as inpainting (repainting parts of an image with new AI-generated visuals using text prompts), outpainting/canvas extension (stretching the boundaries of the image in different directions and filling the new space with new AI visuals), and more into a single view.
