AI Image Generation
DALL.E 2.
My first rodeo with AI image generation was with OpenAI DALL.E 2. I was blown away by DALL.E’s output. My prompt: “a Kathmandu street in the mt Everest region. There’s a yak and a yeti in the frame. Mountains are visible in the background.” gave me some realistic looking scenes from Nepal.
Stable Diffusion
Currently, my go-to for AI Image generation is using a MacOS app called DiffusionBee that creates images using Stable Diffusion. Stable Diffusion is a deep learning, text-to-image model released in 2022.

Midjourney
Midjourney is probably the best text-to-image generation AI progrom out there as of this writing. I have only used it a few times. The only way to generate image is to join their Discord Server and currently only paid subscribers can generate images. But the images are absolutely incredible. Cinematic scenes, fashion ideas and much more have been created with Midjourney. Here’s one of the twitter threads showing the power of Midjourney Version 5.1
I have a few to-do list items in terms of what I want to do with text-to-image generation. I’ll be sharing more updates on this blog and on Twitter. So follow me there @ravsau
