上一周AI届真是太热闹了。诸多重磅产品相继发布或更新。
文字大模型的头号玩家ChatGPT升级到GPT-4，变得更加强大；微软也在office中应用最新的GPT-4，办公软件或迎来革新；国内百度也发布大模型产品文心一言，引发热议。
除了文字大模型外，著名的AI绘画工具Midjourney也更新了最新版本，Midjourney V5逼真形象的生成效果更是让不少人惊呼“可怕”。
那么结合ChatGPT和Midjourney，又能实现什么样的创作效果呢？
先放张生成的图，你猜猜四大名著的哪个人物？
事实上，Midjourney在AI绘画上早就名声在外。去年9月，用Midjourney生成的一副作品《太空歌剧院》还获得某比赛一等奖。
几个月前三言也曾对国内外的多个AI绘画平台做过测试，当时的效果已经非常不错。（实测多家AI作画平台，“五彩斑斓的黑”什么样？如何助力内容创作者？）
但是相比Midjourney现在的效果还是有一定差距，实测Midjourney基本没有废图，图片的可用度非常高。
长时间来看，AI绘画将取代一些基层的画师和设计师将会慢慢变成现实。（文末附注册和使用教程）
下面我们将使用Midjourney生成中国四大名著中的经典人物，看看Midjourney到底都有哪些惊人效果。
下文中每个图像前的一段英文为输入Midjourney的提示词（英文提示词由ChatGPT生成，中文提示词无法准确识别），这是图像生成的依据。
需要注意的是，不同提示词可能产生效果迥异的图像，AI调教的好，效果也会更加符合自己的要求。

Midjourney v5注册和使用教程
要使用到Midjourney v5其实还要费点功夫和钱。
首先是注册问题。因为Midjourney v5是运行在社交平台Discord上，所以用户需要先注册Discord账号。
打开Midjourney的官网，在右下角有“join the beta”就会跳转到注册Discord的界面，注册不算太麻烦，用邮箱和国内手机号就可以注册成功。
注册成功后，就会跳转到Discord网页界面，这时候可以看到Midjourney的图标已经出现页面在左边。
点击Midjourney图标，就进入到了Midjourney频道。在频道的菜单栏里往下翻，我们可以看到“newcomer rooms”（新加入者房间），进入房间基本就进入到了最后几步。
因为Midjourney V5版本是会员功能，免费用户只能用v5之前的老版本，即v1、v2、v3、v4，不过就算老版本免费用户也只能用25次。
那如何购买会员？
这时候我们还要回到最开始的Midjourney官网界面，点击“sign in”，这是会使用刚刚注册的Discord账号登录，这是Midjourney用户个人信息后台。
点击manage sub就是会员购买界面。会员有三个梯度，最便宜的基础会员每月10美元，中间的标准会员每月20美元，最贵会员每月60美元，这是按月支付的价格。如果是按年支付，会员的月包价格会便宜20%。
从权益上看，最基础的会员只能每月生成200次图像。
值得注意的一点是会员是自动订阅的，如果不打算长期使用，记得取消订阅。取消订阅同样在manage sub这里。
对于普通用户来说，免费版本尝鲜就差不多足够了。但对于专业人士，付费才能真正体验Midjourney的魅力，也方便商业化应用。
这两年，生成式AI发展突飞猛进，从前沿技术真正走到了普通民用，从辅助人慢慢发展要替代人，元宇宙还远，不过生成式AI的影响已经慢慢渗透。
至于会不会取代某些职业我们无需过分紧张，但现在学习和利用生成式AI无疑将会给自己带来更强的竞争力。
如果闲来无事，都来试试吧，起码它挺好玩的。
