Midjourney v7 launches with voice prompting and faster draft mode — why is it getting mixed reviews?


While most Midjourney releases were met with overwhelming excitement and adulation, the initial reception to v7 is decidedly more mixed.

The idea is that the human user will be happy to use both together — in fact, you need to have “Draft Mode” turned on to activate audio input — to enter a more seamless flow state of creative drafting with the model, spending less time on refining the specific language of prompts and more on seeing new generations, reacting to them in realtime, and adjusting them or tweaking them as needed more naturally and rapidly by simply speaking the thoughts out to the model. Once the user does that, they’ll land on the familiar Midjourney Alpha website dashboard where they can click “Create” from the left side rail to open a the creation tab. Midjourney plans to engage its community through public sharing spaces and feedback channels, and it will host a roadmap ranking session to help prioritize future development efforts.
