The post says the update focuses on aesthetics, image quality, and personalization, that random low-quality results should be much less frequent, and that creating personalization profiles for V8.2 draws on a larger and improved pool of images. On August 27, 2026 Midjourney began letting everyone test its first V8.2 image edit model, which supports instruction-based editing, inpainting, and outpainting. V8.2 is offered through Midjourney's own service; the post does not describe a release of model weights. USASI has not tested V8.2. https://unitedstatesofamericasuperintelligence.com/news/midjourney-announces-first-acquisition/ https://unitedstatesofamericasuperintelligence.com/news/midjourney-announces-first-acquisition/ Tue, 13 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT acquisition On July 23, 2026 Midjourney announced on its updates blog that its first acquisition is Co–Star. The post says Co–Star's founder and team will join Midjourney to help build a broader organization around product and design, while Co–Star itself will remain entirely under its founder's control and direction. The post links the move to plans for what it calls a very unusual research lab, starting with Midjourney Medical, and to half a dozen projects it expects to announce over the following six months. The post does not give financial terms or say whether the transaction has closed.
