The Midjourney /describe command is life changing
<p>A few weeks ago, I was helping my sister brainstorm art ideas for a book that she’s writing.</p>
<p>We wanted to create art in a specific illustrative style and maintain that style throughout the book. The goal was to conceptualize the art with Midjourney, before working with an artist to create the final illustrations.</p>
<p>There were a few reasons for not wanting to use the Midjourney images directly, but a big one is that you can’t currently copyright AI generated images which I wrote about for DataDrivenInvestor here:</p>

<p>Copyright’s weren’t an issue at this point though, because we straight up couldn’t achieve the output we wanted. Even after hundreds of prompts.</p>
<h1>The problem? You can’t always get what you want</h1>
<p>We found out the hard way that the style we wanted was virtually impossible to re-create in Midjourney using the words that we were intuitively describing it with.</p>
<p>And that happens to pretty much everyone I’ve talked to, including the experts.</p>
