I am attempting to make a comparison between the latest AI technology, the Midjourney V-5 model, and another model as I try to use it.

If you are already using Midjouney, for the version of V5 algorithms…

You can turn it on type --v 5 after your prompt or select "V5" from /settings

What’s new with the V5 base model?

- Much wider stylistic range and more responsive to prompting

- Much higher image quality (2x resolution increase) improved dynamic range

- More detailed images. Details are more likely to be correct. Less unwanted text.

Supports --tile the argument for seamless tiling (experimental)

Supports --ar aspect ratios greater than 2:1 (experimental)

Supports --iw for weighing image prompts versus text prompts.

My experiment.

I am conducting an experiment to compare images processed by Midjourney V-4 and V-5 models, as I attempt to utilize the latest AI technology.

I used the same prompt in both versions V4 and V5.

Another example I made yesterday.

Midjourney V-5

In both examples, you can see the floor is much better in Version V-5 and has fewer unexpected things.
