And it's building spas where you can get your body scanned.

Midjourney Midjourney, known for its AI program that can generate images from text prompts, has announced its new project: A medical machine that can scan your whole body in just 60 seconds. It's so far removed from what Midjourney is known for that we had to check the date and make sure it wasn't April 1st. Well, it's not April Fools: The Midjourney Scanner is real, and the company is even building spas where you can find the machines and get scanned.

In its announcement, Midjourney admitted that the project is not related to anything we've seen from the company so far. However, it's at the point where it's asking itself "How do we want to be different?" and "What do we want to become?" Its answer to those questions, apparently, is to launch Midjourney Medical, with the Scanner being its first hardware product. "We've dreamed of something as powerful as MRI, and as casual as a trip to the spa, and we're unveiling a path to that – today," it wrote in its blog post.
