created by HungryMinded using Midjourney AI

For the last few weeks, I have been completely fascinated by how amazing AI-generated art can get. And as we use language to communicate our ideas to these tools, I decided to try creating the most beautiful images, by using the most beautiful words in the English language.

A quick Google search later I had this list of words. Let’s see what we can achieve by using these as inputs for our AI creations.
