What happens when you give AI a prompt as detailed as a traditional Asian mother's instructions? We put this to the test, challenging three language models: ChatGPT 1o-preview, ChatGPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet to create moon images using Midjourney V6.1 with an ultra-specific prompt. The results? As varied as siblings raised by the same strict parents!

The Experiment:

Our challenge: We challenged these AI models to generate prompts for ten realistic moon images using Midjourney V6.1. The twist? We provided an initial prompt so detailed it left little room for interpretation. The "Tiger Mom" Prompt:

hi I wish to use Midjourney AI to create ten realistic 
image of a close-up view of the moon against a pitch-black background.
The surface of the moon is highly detailed, showing various shades of 
gray with darker and lighter regions indicating lunar maria and highlands.
Craters are visible, adding texture and depth to the image, particularly
around the edges and central areas. The prominent dark patches on 
the moon's surface represent large basaltic plains formed by ancient 
volcanic activity. The overall composition highlights the moon's natural,
rugged beauty, providing a clear and detailed look at Earth's only natural
satellite.
can you be creative and help me generate ten Midjourney AI prompt to
create ten different amazing images?

The Players and Their Performance:

1. ChatGPT 4o: The Creative Rebel • Took creative liberties with the Midjourney prompt • Added unexpected elements while maintaining core requirements • Like a straight-A student who also joined a rock band

2. Claude 3.5 Sonnet: The Middle Ground Balanced Artist • Struck a middle ground between precision and creativity • Followed instructions while adding subtle creative touches • Mastered the classics, then jazzed them up

3. ChatGPT 1o-preview: The Rule Follower Dutiful Child • Adhered closely to the given instructions • Produced results that closely mirrored the original guidelines • The perfect recipe copier

Key Takeaways:

• AI creativity varies, just like human creativity • Some AIs thrive under strict rules, others need freedom • The best choice depends on your specific needs • There's value in both precision and innovation

Before we reveal which AI created which prompts, we invite you to pause and check out our accompanying YouTube video. In the video, you'll see the Midjourney V6.1 images generated from each AI's prompts. Take a moment to decide which style you prefer — the creatively rebellious, the balanced approach, or the precisely faithful interpretation.

Once you've watched the video and formed your opinion, come back to find out which AI — ChatGPT 4o, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, or ChatGPT 1o-preview — aligns with your preferred style. This experiment highlights the diverse approaches AI models take when generating prompts for tools like Midjourney V6.1.

Understanding these differences can help you craft better prompts and achieve your desired results in AI-generated art. Whether you're drawn to ChatGPT's creative flair, Claude's balanced approach, or a more literal interpretation, remember that your choice of AI assistant can significantly shape your Midjourney V6.1 creations.

So, next time you're using Midjourney V6.1, consider which AI might best help you formulate your prompt. After all, even the strictest instructions can't completely cage creativity — but they might just shape it in unexpected and exciting ways!

We'd love to hear which style resonated with you most. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below!
