Midjourney has officially introduced its first AI image generator in Alpha named Midjourney V7. 

It comes as the first offering from Midjourney in nearly a year and went live around midnight (EST) on Thursday.

It comes a week after the launch of ChatGPT's latest advanced artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Studio Ghibli-style image generator that created waves among social media for its ability to generate Ghibli-style photos.

The company stated, "We’re now beginning the alpha-test phase of our new V7 image Model. It’s our smartest, most beautiful, most coherent model yet. Give it a shot and expect updates every week or two for the next two months."

MidJourney’s latest AI image generator consists of the ability to generate some captivating, animated images like Ghibli-style image generators.

What sets it apart is that users, before testing the AI model, are needed to rate up to 200 images depending on their likes and dislikes for a certain kind of detailing and genre.

Known as Midjourney “personalisation” profile, it generates each user’s distinctive visual preferences to tailor results accordingly.

Notably, V7 stands as Midjourney's first-ever AI model to enable personalisation by default.

Once set up, users can activate/deactivate V7 from Midjourney’s site. 

Users who are members of Midjourney’s Discord server can also turn it on or off on Midjourney’s Discord chatbot.
