Now, Midjourney has cooked up a simple way to reuse your Midjourney AI characters.

I tried it out and, for the most part, it works.

It’s far from perfect.

The more descriptive you make your initial character-creation prompts, the better result you’ll get in subsequent images.

Perhaps the most startling thing about Midjourney’s update is the utter simplicity of the creative process.

I selected the least objectionable one and then crafted a new prompt using the URL from my favorite me.

In each, Midjourney Me looks slightly different.

Midjourney’s AI will improve and soon it will be easy to create countless images featuring your favorite character.
