I find it interesting that after all this time, Midjourney still seems to be the leader in aesthetics.
It's retained has a lot of the issues that other AI image gen has moved past: It's still not very good at following directions, it still makes basic mistakes occasionally like wrong number of fingers, it still often creates weird nonsensical AI messes in the background. But what it has retained all the way through, is that excellent sense of aesthetics. It seems like we haven't really figured out how to have both - you can have accurate or beautiful, but not together.
