- Midjourney 5.1 offers higher coherence, improved sharpness, and increased accuracy to text prompts, resulting in more compelling visuals.

Midjourney has announced the release of version 5.1, an updated version of their AI-powered image generation system. The latest iteration offers more coherent, sharp, and visually appealing images, while also being easier to use and responding more precisely to user instructions.
Version 5.1 comes with several enhancements compared to its predecessor, including higher coherence, greater accuracy to text prompts, fewer unwanted borders or text artifacts, and improved sharpness. These upgrades result in more compelling visuals and an overall better user experience.
A notable addition to Midjourney 5.1 is the “RAW” mode, which caters to expert users by reducing the model’s opinionated nature and granting them more creative control. This mode allows users to achieve visuals closer to their specific vision while still benefiting from the AI-powered generation capabilities.
AI moderation, previously disabled, has been re-enabled for V5 and newer models. The Midjourney team has taken user feedback from the previous test run into account, making improvements to ensure a smoother experience. Users are encouraged to report any issues or edge cases they encounter, as the team plans to continue refining the AI moderation system.
Midjourney 5.1 is now the default mode, but users who prefer the previous version can revert to it in the settings. The team plans to further tune V5.1 styles and possibly release a V5.2 in the future, indicating a commitment to continuous improvement and providing users with the best AI-powered image generation experience possible.
