Which FREE Midjourney alternative did you think came out the best?! Do you think that any of these came out better than Midjourney? 🤔
Thanks for the video!
@@ChrisSamuel1729 my pleasure Chris! What did you think about the vid, tools, etc.? Would love to get your thoughts so I can make it even better for our community 🙌
You are great! Thank you so much! I tried with chat GPT but no image was generated only an icon of a broken IMG! Anything I am doing wrong?
Playground Ai
In bluewillow, can they generate the same image as first image you generated?
his eyes are sooooo big i thought he was animated with ai first.
Me also I did click on Ai generated Animation on some sought
I thought it was just me, he looks like a real generated avatar character, crazy
I honestaly did not realise
Thank you internet
Me too.😂
bro looks ai generated😭😭🙏🙏
Foor reaaaallll💀💀
pixar did good here
Rude
LOLLLL
That's ok but why is it funny 😂😂
Bro drank like an entire 2 liter of espresso before making this video
An update : BlueWillow is not for free anymore, charges you after 25 images for a 5 or 15$ a month
Playground doesn't let you use up to 100 images, probably just 25
Lexica has only 5 images
And on blueWillow if you pay how many you can make after?
Thank you
Now blue willow give you 20 images per day 😊
Also midjourney.
Please blink.
You should try Runliq, it`s also free and easy
Blue Willow is the best free AI tool for image generation that I have used. It seems to be an excellent tool for individuals, like me, who are unfamiliar with AI art creation
definitely important to get familiar with AI tools by using the free ones like BlueWillow (and others mentioned in the video) so you don't have to spend money while you're learning everything! is there anything you've learned that's really helped you with getting better images? would love to hear your experience
Can I use the images for commercial use?
@@caribbeanqueen44 with Bluewillow yes, all rights belong to you for commercial and non-commercial usages
@@caribbeanqueen44 good question ! @david paykin !
this comment sounds like it was generated by AI
From my experience so far...midjourney is my favorite. It's the closest to what I want but still not quiet. It's good with dark theme pictures, which is what I like
yeah, too bad MidJourney makes much better pictures
What I dont like about it is anyone has access to the images you create or terms you used.
@@CJ-jf9pz I agree on that. Not a fan. I know some of them you can delete, not sure if you can midjourney . Also the pay now, the price. Not a fan of that either
@@mjprelic I wish they'd just make it a web page or app or even software at some point. It shouldn't be only available in a Discord
Leonardo ai is now better
Would be nice you you had that chat-gpt command in description for an easy copy
I just screen shot and copied text from image on iPhone - If on android - copy text app - PC - screenshot and type it, takes about 10 seconds 🤷🏻♂️
does someone have it and could send here? :D@@ketoshaun590
Right click, search images with Google and you can select any text you want. Works on PC, not sure about MAC.But not working anymore, or for me.
The best rendered Avatar I have seen to date,
down to the missed synced audio, well done 🍷
You said "i dont want to waste your time and skip right to the chase" I liked and subscribed in the moment
I must say this has helped me a ton with preschool to 3rd grade flashcards as a teacher thanks ❤
I've watched thousands of videos on AI and this is by far the most helpful video I have ever watched!
Dude thank You for being honest and straight to the point 🥂
This is very helpful! I liked the Syntheses image the best. Midjourney isn't allowing free accounts to generate images today because of extremely high demand, but blue willow is working.
FYI, bluewillow and midjourney are two different image generate even midjourney are way better than bluewillow. Don't compare.
I tried many of these but honestly MJ is a beast. Nothing can beat it so far but it is expensive.
I’m trying to purchase it declined my cards 😢
Your facial expressions are so wholesome bro. love from South Africa.
ohhhh duuuuddee!!! this was frgin awesome !! good job
pov your looking for the guy that has the copy and paste prompt in the comments
David this is THE BEST VIDEO I've seen about using free ai to generate images! Please do more like this, because no one is doing like you did this one! And thank you for all that valuable information!
I am new to AI, just starting out using the free ones I found online. This AI stuff was overwhelming BIG TIME for me. Thank you for creating this video, not only is it completely understandable, you make it easier with step by step guidance, and you do not charge for this information as most people are doing right now!!! People like you are hard to find these days, so....... THANK YOU!!!!
Man, i just enjoy your facial expression, really helps me understand....keep up the good work
Midjourney generated images are actually superior than any of those free alternatives. Perhaps that is one reason they are free.
I recently created amazing images with Blue Willow and the experience was really good
Stable Diffusion is free, can run locally, has more functionalities and is way more customisable to achieve what you want. It takes a ton of time to learn how to make it work though...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are literally now my favorite RUclips person! Some people take so long to make a point, it drives me crazy! Some people don’t even talk about what you assumed from their heading! You got straight to the point!
I’m completely new to AI imagine generating and this has really helped me - especially considering I was close to paying for one
You probably mentioned it. Watching video again. Looking to input my own images for ideas in the mix to get it ideas for what I want.
As though i first thought you yourself are a kind of weird aiavatar creation, i loved your tipps - suscribed!
So glad I came across this video looking for a midjourney alternative.
You gained a new subscriber today. You're a legend. That's for the free tools!
I love your personality, knowledge and vibes in your video. Hope we will have more youtubers like you out there
I have have honestly use a bunch of AI art alternates to mid Journey but none of them compared. Although many came close they all pretty much run off of the same open source Technologies and all have the same exact issues. It was not easy to jump from mid Journey to any one of these programs and just start producing works. I had to use much more complex and detailed prompts to get works that were nowhere near as good as mid Journeys outputs, not in quality but in visible objective mistakes within the art. You have to use much more intricate prompts to get lesser quality works, until this is alleviated there is no such thing as a better alternative.
Your face is so intense that I thought you were an AI generated animated avatar at first.
Omg genius. You’re literally the ONLY person I’ve come across who ACTUALLY HELPED ME! You should feel amazing right now because I’m hard to reel in - but my goodness - thank you for not repeating the same thing over and over like literally everyone else on youtube.
I am the 'Artist' of my Big Mac because I 'prompted' the drive-through to hold my pickle.
😳😳
David.... this was the most informative video I've seen on YT regarding Ai Art Generators. GREAT JOB!!!! Thanks. 👍🏽
Subscribed! Thank you for sharing your knowledge David
Dude, you have such an animated face, I honestly wondered if I was watching an AI generated person. I'm not kidding. You have such an expressive face. That's definitely not a bad thing.
Much love bro, I am grateful and I appreciate you... Keep winning and evolving into becoming your greatest version...
can you please add the prompt to the description so that i can copy and paste
this guy looks like he took every drug at once in a coffee with an espresso shot
....with that being said made a very helpful video
im loving the last one already its bit crowded so i had to create my own server and added the bot its a true game changing
thanking only wont be enough as a member of the broke AI community haha I will proudly say , this man here served hundreds if that not thousands of people's favor out there ... thank you
@@Techuser704 i created a new private server then left click on the bot in the main sever followed with a click "add to sever" and there u have it
@@briansg_1870 please send link to server 🙏🙏
So it works but you still have to pay to use it
I really apreciate the links in the description
thank you, actually you are the only valuable one in the bunch who explained things❤
I'd like to find one that can create a realistic photo of something that doesn't actually exist, like a creature I make up, so it looks real, like a photo. All of them tend to create fantasy like renderings.
This is great. I checked most of them out. Thanks!
David: I cant believe this is free.
Me: I cant believe you just told us the info we are looking for instead of stalling and inserting ads
I love Playground. I like Lexica too. It is nice, but for my taste they went a bit too far. Everything has the same 3D look, but that may only be to my own eye. When they first started, it was easier to create illustrations as opposed to the 3D look. On the other hand, the end result does look really nice. They make it easy to create beautiful images.
Which one will you recommend for more lofi illustration looks? Like water colour art style, or line art style etc.
"I hate it when RUclipsrs get straight to the point"
...said no one ever
why didn't you pasted the 1:09 in description
no nonsense video. thank you sir.
Excuse me, would it be possible for me to receive a copy of that code? I'm experiencing some errors on my end and I would greatly appreciate your assistance. If it's not too much trouble, could you please share the code in the comments? Thank you very much
YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE THE KIND OF PERSON we need more of! 👏👏👏
Sorry but there is a reason why Midjourney is what it is, I have tried almost all the others and not a single one comes even a little bit close to what Midjourney offers. They are way ahead in the game. Its like comparing Kendrick Lamar to the Island Boys. Here is another example. Its like comparing The Dark Knight to The Room (2003).
I don't know what you guys are smoking to not see it.
this was exactly what i was looking for, thank you so much
thank you for this video 😊, I found Playground AI to work pretty well(provided one learns to use the prompts somewhat well, which ain't that hard.😅)
Thanks alot Dear for this lovely informational useful video. Appreciated your hardwork brother😊🙏❤✌
I am new into these AI things. And wow, you helped a lot. I am checking one by one. Will be slowly checking if there is some that can generate short video. 10s perhaps. Again, thank you. Subscribed and liked!
The culture of RUclips professionals
Tnx man. I really appreciate ur hard effort. Keep up
appreciate you my friend 🙏
Tensor Art is the best AI generation platform. Even it can provide you with convenience in your work!😁😁
InstantArt never works for me and gives an "internal error" whenever i try to generate an image. Lexica is okay but I don't like the quality very much. However, Playground AI is VERY fast and accurate. Thank you so much for sharing these information with us
Leonardo AI deserves a mention here.
true
Hi David, Your videos are fantastic mate. I have just seen the video above and it's great that you don't even have affiliate links or sponsor anything etc. I am sure that no matter what, you will still gain from this way of doing stuff. I have now subscribed to you and I look forward to seeing your new (and older) videos.
the hub felt personal 💀
I think it's funny AI can't make small sprites like tileset size pixel art one of the few art styles safe from AI. the less pixels used the harder it is for the AI to make it :)
Didn’t know about that SAU! Do you know why it struggles with fewer pixels? 🤔
Maybe but I can generate something simple and pixelate it myself
Just tested 8 bit pixel art with midjourney v5 and it looks pretty good to me actually
@@CryinOverSpilledTea I would test it but i'm poor :(
@@ryanclemons1 Broke not poor 😂
Do right this chatgpt command in a doc file and share in a description, sot hat it could be easy for us.
Can you paste the prompt here please ? thanks
I died when he said "the hub?"
What about copyright?
Listening to this man is like 2 hour cardio
he sounds like doctor mike
he sounds like doctor mike
Thank you so much for this video. Playground is the one for me. private mode even when you use it for free. permanent private mode on pro version along with bigger scale like 1M picsales. worth it when you think that you need to pay $60 on Midjourney to have the private mode.
What is the private mode for? I am new to this so I guess I just don’t understand why this is important. Thanks
@@Kassie_Brown it means you are the only one that can see your content unless you share it on the platform or on social media.
You are killing it!
Great video! I really liked the instant art one😊
Awesome watch! Thank you!
Thanks for a very informative video David, this information is exactly what I was looking for.. you just gained a new subscriber sir
Thanks for sharing...do these sites have a commercial license or only for personal use?
Wow, thank you so much for sharing these free Midjourney alternatives! I’ve been looking for AI art generators to help me create unique designs, and now I have some great options to explore. I really appreciate your helpful recommendation. :)
What have you found is the best?
@@matthewnour97 It's best considering the price point.
as of June 10th, 2024
1:09 doesnt work anymore
4:06 lexica is not free anymore, not even free renewals
8:55 Playground is only 50 images per day now not 1000
I see you using those juicy creator economics x mr beast tactics. Love the research and thanks for this. U caught me at the right moment
happy to help Adawg! let me know if I can lend a hand with what you're working on 🧡
@@DavidPaykin Pinged on linkedin. Love the comments to everyone. Stands out.
It only took 15 seconds into this video to make me think this guy needs to stop drinking monster and sleep.
Your whole instruction is practically helpful! Thank you. :)
first one worked like a charm thanks!
Thank you for your informative video. This realy got me inspired to explore AI further.
I am particularly interested in "Image to Image" AI, rather than "txt to image", rendering.
Thus far I have been somewhat dissapointed with the results that I have found. Either they are not free or if they are, the AI rendering is completely random.
Can all these be used for commercial purposes
I like lexica and playground more 😁
Thanks for the info 😁
bro talks with his hands so much, my deaf sister laughed lol
Really a great video! On the two platforms that you were talking about that are free, Are you still able to use the images commercially? I may have missed you saying that. Please let me know when you can. Thanks!
Yes I need to know as well
I love this guys energy, keep it up David!
I don't see the point of these. Is just repositories of AI art that was generated by someone else. I thought it would be about free softwares that will let me tell the AI what to draw.
all of these allow you to do both actually...you can search what other people have done with prompts and use them as inspiration for your own OR you can do it from scratch and build the prompts yourself. up to you how you do it and they're all free!
Bro looks like an animated character from the future.
can you post the prompt for for ChatGPT + Pollinations AI here in the comments?
It doesn't work. Chat gpt responds w/ message saying that it cannot generate images🙄
@@Brooklyn_Muse that's sad
Here's the prompt:
Continue with the below prompt.
INPUT = {focus}
OUTPUT = {description}
{description} = {focusDetailed},%20{adjective1},%20{adjective2},%20{visualStyle1},%20{visualStyle2}, %20{visualStyle3}, %20{artistReference}
INPUT = a photo of a cat
OUTPUT = a photo of a cat on a couch, comfortable, cute, colorful, interior design, Ansel Adams
Could be having issues because of high traffic taking down ChatGPT services or Pollinations is making changes to their backend. If it doesn't work right now, I'd come back and try again later!
@@Brooklyn_Muse for me it just worked
@@DavidPaykin Thanks so much for the mention
Man said he will get straight to it.. I'm 3 min in and still waiting
bro its a fucking AI i didnt realize it until now but he is not a human
What's the point of trying to become a professional artist and spending hours and hours a day trying to get better if AI can make professional looking art in literal minutes. Alot of artists are losing their jobs over this and it doesn't help that the AI they use is literally stealing other people's art to make it, it's fucked up and as an artist it sucks because I've been wanting to do art professionally since I was in 9th grade but now it's getting to the point that idk if I'll be able to do that anymore. I don't wanna work a dead end job the rest of my life, I wanna do something I'm passionate about and for me that's creating art but AI is literally fucking it up for everyone who wants to be an artist as a job... It's sad and frankly it's making me not even see the point in doing it anymore which in turn is just making me more depressed then I already am... I used to love drawing and everytime I would draw I'd get so excited because I saw I was improving and getting closer and closer to being able to do it professionally but now everytime I draw I just get frustrated and pissed because I know that now there is basically no point in trying anymore because AI is most likely gonna take away all artists jobs in the matter of years... Artists are already undervalued and unappreciated enough as it is.. AI has basically ruined my dream I had plans for my future that involved art and doing it professionally but now nobody wants to pay artists anymore because of AI... Art is the only thing I've wanted to do since I was in 9th grade I'm already extremely depressed and now I'm even more depressed because I know my dream literally the only thing I genuinely wanna do with my life is basically ruined now thanks to this AI bullshit.
Things change and move forward... artists need to embrace these systems, they are not going anywhere. I am a professional artist myself, and had the same concerns initially, but have invested time in learning to get the best out of Midjourney and can now turn around my workload probably 5 times as fast, in addition I can test out new ideas and variations so fast. I still use my own skills and simply upload the sketches in to MJ which I then play with quickly instead of spending time re-sketching over and over again - last month, using Midjourney I doubled my usual average income and worked around 25% less in terms of time, which I then spent with my family... It's a win, win if you embrace these systems for what they are - tools.
Think about it like this-- horses used to be staple work animals. Something that was needed because there was no better alternative for labor like transportation or farming. Then the diesel engines came along and did the job of a plow horse a thousand times over and had a wider range of applications. Nobody's denying that the utility of the horse has been beaten in all practical senses, but does that means the horse loses purpose? Certainly not-- people's fondness for horses certainly hasn't waned. For example: show horses still compete for beauty standards, race horses are still racing, and horses that pull carriages are still employed. Are these occupations for horses as numerous in the past? No, the horse population has been steadily decreasing since the 1920s.
In the same way, artists will never truly be replaced with AI because, just as with the horse, they have true elements that can't be authentically replicated by the alternative. An automobile can't authentically replace a horse in a horse race, and an AI drawing cannot authentically replace the work of a human. The work of a human is marked by the cumulative life experience of the individual and the emotions that they are trying to convey. These are things that an AI can attempt to replicate by giving it certain prompts that mimic specific qualities of other works, but the AI has no true human experience. An AI will never hunger, feel sorrow, or delight in the quenching of thirst, or enjoy basking in sunlight.
The work of an artist is going to change. AI is going to make things easier. Graphic design for example is now something that has a lower bar for entry. You can generate images and simply edit them to do what would take a human to design by hand or by programming much longer. This actually bleeds into much more than just the art world. Pretty much any job can be replaced by an AI and it would likely run much smoother. The main issue now is accountability-- how much should we give to an AI to do before it becomes a problem for the people it manages/impacts?
In this way dear artist, I see your career choice as something irreplaceable and distinctly unique. Something that defines humanity is its creativity, and I think AI is just an extension of our outlets of creativity. Something that I've thought of doing myself is using AI generative text and making some art out of that. I don't know what it'd look like but I think the idea is neat. Keep pursuing what you love to do and you'll live life having felt you've never worked a day.

Skipped to the end when you said that was the best option. Liked and commented though.
how do you maintain consistency with blue willow? I used the same words for my first images but tried to add a character for the second and it was a completely different style than the first.
dude has 700k subs and not verified, why?
the video was very good, i subbed!
thank you cutting to the point
I always appreciated when creators did that too 😄
Whoa thank you I was looking for this, you got my subcribition.
Do you need the plus version for it to generate and image or pull from Polynesian's AI? I copied the prompt and it sent me this:
"I apologize, but I cannot generate a photo as I am a text-based AI language model. However, based on the prompt you provided, the output description I would generate is:
"An adorable photo of a cat lounging comfortably on a colorful couch, with an interior design inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's style."
Please note that the specific adjectives and references used may vary depending on the context and preferences of the user."
Got it. You need to add plug ins
Same thing happened to me just now. What plug-ins do I need?
Thank you AI with big eyes
these are not free and dont give 1000 free as said.. even playground only give 100 not 1000... there are NO FREE ones
