David Holz mentioned on Twitter that he was considering a Midjourney API. They're obviously providing it to Meta now, so it might become more broadly available after Midjourney becomes the default image gen for Meta products.
Midjourney wins on aesthetic for sure. Nothing else comes close. Midjourney images are just beautiful to behold.
David's ambition is to beat Google to building a world model you can play games in. He views the image and video business as a temporary intermediate to that end game.
// In this one, Gemini doesn't understand what "cinematic" is
"A cinematic underwater shot of a turtle gracefully swimming in crystal-clear water [...]"
// In this one, the reflection in the water in the background has different buildings
"A modern city where raindrops fall upward into the clouds instead of down, pedestrians calmly walking [...]"
Midjourney created both perfectly.
