"Generative art making is flourishing. Algorithms that turn text prompts into
images, such as
DALL-E and
Stable Diffusion, are emerging as viable
creative tools. And they’re fuelling much debate about their artistic
legitimacy and potential to pinch our jobs.
The sudden leap in fidelity of artificial intelligence (AI) art production has
been made possible by advances in deep learning technologies, in particular
natural language processing and generative adversarial networks.
In essence, a user can input a text description and the algorithm
auto-translates this into a cohesive image.
MidJourney – or MJ as it is known to its passionate users – is perhaps the
most seductive technology for its painterly output and poetic interactions. The
charm begins from the very first moment, with the command line prompt
“/imagine”."
