Text-to-image models have at least two dimensions of performance: Image quality and text understanding. Midjourney is outstanding at image quality, since it is able to make pictures with few "artifacts", like messed up hands. But it isn't so great at understanding text. For example, the new Dall-E version used by Bing is significantly better than Midjourney in producing an "invisible monkey", although far from perfect: https://www.bing.com/images/create/an-invisible-monkey-with-a-single-banana/64a3e3fac82d48a7af136b64223aeac3 https://www.bing.com/images/create/an-invisible-monkey-with-... (Adobe Firefly also fails the invisible monkey task, despite usually having better image quality than Bing/Dall-E.)
