Learn MoreMidJourney, the popular AI image generator with more than 19 million users (including several of us at VentureBeat), has introduced new features to enhance user customization. Today, the small company launched Pinterest-inspired Moodboards and support for multiple personalization profiles meaning users can now create and switch between multiple custom versions of Midjourneys latest image generator AI model, version 6.1, that are tailored to their unique aesthetics.The updates aim to streamline the creative process for individuals and teams, making it easier to integrate personalized styles across various projects.What are Midjourneys new moodboards?The standout feature, Moodboards, enables users to upload curated collections of images that act as inspiration for generating new art. The AI model adapts to the diversity and complexity of the uploaded images, creating a unique style profile that remixes the visual elements. This addition is complemented by the ability to create multiple personalization profiles, allowing users to organize and deploy their different styles seamlessly.Setting up a custom model has also become significantly faster, with the company claiming a fivefold improvement in image ranking speed. The ranking system is how Midjourney trains a custom model on behalf of you, the user. You need to navigate to Midjourneys image ranker and pick which of a pair of random images you like best, then continue rating pairs of images until youve reached a certain threshold where the model understands what kinds of images and aesthetics you like. Users now need just 40 ratings to begin creating a profile, with optimal stability achieved at 200. Previously, you needed 200 to personalize the model.While heavy users may still prefer contributing thousands of ratings for maximum precision, the streamlined process lowers the barrier to entry for new users.Users can begin rating pairs of images over at midjourney.com/personalize.Better organization featuresThe updates also introduce organizational improvements. Users can now name their profiles, designate one or multiple profiles as defaults, and track all images associated with specific profiles. MidJourney emphasizes that these features are particularly beneficial for those juggling multiple projects or collaborating with others.David Holz, founder of MidJourney, shared the announcement on the companys Discord server earlier today. He explained the motivation behind the updates, expressing a desire to make personalization accessible for a broader range of creative workflows. Holz highlighted that the new tools allow users to take control of their projects while maintaining the flexibility to work with diverse creative teams.As MidJourney continues to refine its personalization infrastructure, the company is soliciting user feedback through its ideas-and-features channel. These developments highlight the platforms commitment to empowering creators with tools that are both intuitive and powerful, marking another step forward in the evolution of AI-assisted creativity.The additions come as expected following Midjourneys announcement last week of an experimental new collaborative image making whiteboard feature called Patchwork.
