Q & A
What is the main focus of the video?
-The main focus of the video is to discuss the features of Mid Journey's latest version 6, particularly the improvements in text generation within images and other features like chaos, weird, and stylize.
How has the text generation feature in Mid Journey's version 6 improved compared to previous versions?
-In version 6, text generation has significantly improved, making it possible to get text to appear in images by simply placing the desired text in quotation marks in the prompt. While not 100% accurate, it now yields better results than before.
What are some challenges with generating text in images using the new version?
-The challenges include difficulties with more obscure words or phrases, as the AI might not get them exactly right. Longer sentences may also be harder to generate accurately due to the higher chance of words getting scrambled.
How can users direct the medium and style of the text in their images?
-Users can direct the medium and style by specifying how the text has been created, such as 'typed', 'written', or other phrases, and by indicating where the text is located, like 'on a sign' or 'billboard'.
What is the chaos feature in Mid Journey and how does it affect the outputs?
-The chaos feature, controlled by the '--chaos' or '-c' parameter with values from 0 to 100, introduces variety in the outputs. Higher values result in more diverse and unexpected results, but may also stray from the prompt.
What are the differences between the 'weird' and 'chaos' parameters?
-The 'weird' parameter, controlled by '--weird' or '-w' with values from 0 to 3,000, controls the unusualness of the images. Unlike 'chaos', 'weird' is not used by default and can make images look more unconventional.
How does the 'stylize' feature affect the images?
-The 'stylize' feature, controlled by '--stylize' or '-s' with values from 0 to 1,000, adjusts how heavily Mid Journey's default style is applied to the images. Higher values can add significant beautification, while lower values result in less stylized, more photographic looks.
What are some additional features available in version 6 of Mid Journey?
-Additional features in version 6 include Das Dash for seamless tiling of images and image blending for better integration of multiple images.
How can users experiment with the 'weird' and 'chaos' parameters?
-Users can experiment by combining the 'weird' and 'chaos' parameters to see how different levels of each affect the output. It's recommended to start with lower values and adjust as desired to achieve the preferred level of unconventionality.
What is the speaker's recommendation regarding the use of 'weird' and 'chaos' parameters?
-The speaker recommends staying within lower values for 'weird' and 'chaos' if the goal is to see more recognizable and less extreme outputs. They also suggest that for most prompts, values around 300 already provide significant results without needing to go very high.
How does the 'raw' style compare to the 'default' style in version 6?
-In version 6, the 'raw' style tends to be more photo-realistic, while the 'default' style varies from photographic to painted looks. The two styles seem more connected now, as images generated with the same seed number under both styles show similar compositions.

🖼️ Introduction to Mid Journey's Version 6 and Text Feature
The paragraph introduces the viewer to Mid Journey's latest version 6, focusing on its new ability to incorporate text into images. The speaker shares their experiences with this feature, noting that while it's not perfect, it has significantly improved from previous versions. They explain that by placing the desired text within quotation marks in the prompt, the AI can generate images with the text, although challenges may arise with more obscure words or longer sentences. The speaker also suggests that single words might yield the best results currently and advises on additional methods to direct the text's appearance and medium within the image. They conclude by highlighting the potential for creating logos and fonts with this new feature, despite acknowledging the existence of other AI tools that may perform these tasks more efficiently.
🎨 Exploring Chaos, Weirdness, and Stylization Features in Version 6
This paragraph delves into three specific features of Mid Journey's version 6: chaos, weirdness, and stylization. The speaker discusses their experiments with these parameters, using various prompts and different values to illustrate the effects. They note that the chaos feature (controlled by --chaos or -c) introduces variety in the outputs, with higher values leading to more unexpected results. The weirdness parameter (--weird or -w) is described as controlling the unusualness of the images, with values from 0 to 3000. The speaker finds that the default style and raw style are more connected in version 6, as evidenced by their experiment overlaying default and raw images. They conclude that while the stylization feature (--stylize or -s) from 0 to 1000 makes images more aesthetically pleasing, the weird and chaos parameters may not be as useful for their future projects. The speaker invites viewers to share their experiences with these features in the comments.
