MIDJOURNEY WINS BATTLE OF THE IMAGE UPSCALERS, BUT WITH A CATCH

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

German stock photographer Robert Kneschke wanted to put Midjourney’s new upscaler to the test so he generated an AI picture on Midjourney in the standard 1024x1024 resolution and then ran it through Midjourney’s 4x upscaler. He was impressed with the results. However, the problem with Midjourney’s upscaler is that the user can only run AI images generated on Midjourney through it so users can’t upload their low-resolution photos to the platform. There are other drawbacks too: Namely, the price.
