[Midjourney Latest News] October 29 Office Hours Summary

Hello!
Here is a summary of the Midjourney "Office Hours" held on October 29.

A lot of new features are scheduled to arrive within the next 30 days or so!

According to David, because this update involves many large-scale changes, the exact release date is still unpredictable.
At this stage, issues and bugs are likely to occur frequently.
They are currently proceeding step-by-step from simple features to more complex ones.
A user profile feature for the web version is scheduled to be implemented soon.

Furthermore, a new "Style Creator" will appear, and there is a possibility that style editing tools will be added.
He explained that this is an evolved version of the "Style Tuner" from version 5.
There was no detailed explanation of how it works, so we will have to wait and see.
They are calling this feature "prompt-free tuning," and the name is still under discussion.

We can look forward to the release of 7.1.
Prompt accuracy and visual quality will be improved, and personalization will also be enhanced.
Draft mode will also be improved.

There was also a mention of real-time image previews.
Perhaps that is what the new draft mode refers to.

Version 8 is being prioritized, but a release within December seems difficult.
Since model training requires at least 30 days, he also suggested the possibility of a February release.
It feels like we're being teased a bit, haha.

What we do know is that the UI (user interface) will be refreshed soon.
This will change the workflow itself.
Additionally, they are working on new editing models and video generation models.

That concludes the summary of the Midjourney Office Hours.
