Eaux saf aim; Midjourney v4 vs v5

Just a little more on the craziness from yesterday, and a comparison with Midjourney v5.

We chose another phoneme-triple to look at, “eaux saf aim”. In retrospect there are some words in there (French for “waters”, and English for “aim”), but that’s okay.

Using the magic from yesterday, with Midjourney v4 and “–no words,letters,text” and “–no face” (for that total weight of zero) and “–chaos 50 –ar 3:2”, we get the quite pleasing:

A two-by-two grid of images. From upper-left going clockwise: A person with the head of a fish wearing a diving suit, standing in front of an oval blue disc with white lines radiating from it (perhaps a decoration behind a water feature); a realistic fish floating above some water, with a car in the background partially submerged in the water; a person with an animal head wearing a diving suit with goggles pushed up on its forehead, with a yellow car behind it; a person with a furry animal head and large ears, wearing large goggles on its face and carrying some kind of gun, with a pool of water and a large oval something in the background.
A two-by-two grid of images. From upper-left going clockwise: A fish or shark hovering or jumping over water, with buildings to either side and part of a car visible to the left; a small person wearing goggles and carrying some kind of tool or weapon, with a large fish floating in the air next to them; a small person in a cat and shorts and a loose shirt standing in water with a small dog beside them, and a car standing in the water behind them and trees behind that; a humanoid with a very large head and huge goggles standing in front of a hovering futuristic vehicle.

Whew, those are not easy to write alt text for!

And then we did exactly the same thing, only with “–v 5” to get the v5 engine, and it did the notably different:

A two-by-two grid of images of orange-brown household items on a white background. From upper-left going clockwise: a wall hanging with a pattern of leaves, a sofa, a slightly different sofa, and a loosely-folded blanket or comforter.
A two-by-two grid of images of household items on a white background. From upper-left going clockwise: a corner table with large wings on two sides and a piece of leafy reddish statuary in the center; a pale yellow sofa with a blue leaf-shaped cushion on it; a long red ottoman; two squarish red ottomans.

This may be reflecting something about the internal “creativity” or “style” of the two engines.

Oh, hey! I should try the v5 one with the “stylize” level turned up. Let’s see, with “–stylize 999” we get:

A two-by-two grid of images of household items on a white background. From upper-left going clockwise: a pale yellow couch with two blue pillows on it; some pale brown sofa cushions with a band of material wrapped around them; a bolt of red cloth with white stripes; and what looks like sofa-leather piled and wrapped up in more of it.

So that’s a No :) it isn’t the –stylize setting.

From this experiment we can theorize that v4 dreams about weird surreal stuff, whereas v5 dreams about a household goods catalog.

    Omg I don’t understand how to speak “MidJourney”! Amazing images all that you’ve created in these series of posts.
