Midjourney introduced a “remaster” feature today.

We want to try letting people ‘remaster’ images from the v1/v2/v3 algorithm using the ‘coherence’ of the –test algorithm.

Here’s a comparison using one of my first successful renders with midjourney.  Top is the original rendered with V3 algorithm and the bottom is the new remaster.

There’s been debate about the new “–test” and “–testp” algorithms verses the older versions.  The new algorithm  emphasizes “coherence” and is more realistic but less “artistic.”  I think a blind rush to “realism” is a mistake because images start to look like boring cell phone images, but this new algorithm at Midjourney looks pretty damn good.  I like both images here.  They are quite different but both are dramatic in they’re own way.
