What new ideas could you bring to life with 25 free AI-generated images?
Midjourney, the renowned AI image generation service, has just taken a significant step forward by opening its website to all users, including a generous free trial for newcomers.
VentureBeat's Executive Editor, Carl Franzen, delves into this development, highlighting how Midjourney is now offering 25 free image generations to new users. Previously, access was limited to Discord and an exclusive "alpha" website, but now anyone can easily dive into the world of AI image creation.
Here's what you can expect:
Open Access: Midjourney's website is now available to all users, offering 25 free image generations.
User-Friendly Sign-Up: New users can register via Google or Discord, simplifying the onboarding process.
Image Creation Features: Users can generate images in sets of four by entering text prompts, with adjustable settings for aspect ratio, stylization, weirdness, and variety.
Organizational Tools: The platform includes features to organize previously generated images and engage with other users through a chat function.
Account Management: Existing users can log in using their Discord accounts to maintain their image history and can merge accounts for added flexibility.
Now, as Midjourney faces growing competition from other image generators like Elon Musk's xAI and Ideogram 2, along with legal challenges from artists, this open-access approach is a game-changer.
So, what are you waiting for? The only way to find out is to give it a try yourself. Dive in, let your imagination run wild, and unlock your true artistic potential with Midjourney's new web platform.
