While the AI image generators that are built into chatbots might have been grabbing most of the attention recently, the dedicated AI imagery engine Midjourney has been quietly improving and evolving since its launch three years ago.

Midjourney Inc. today introduced a new artificial intelligence model, V1, that can generate videos up to 21 seconds in length.

A growing number of AI sites and services are able to generate short videos based on your descriptions or still images. Now, you can add Midjourney to the mix. On Wednesday, the popular AI image creator announced that users can now animate their images into five-second videos.
