Matt Wolfe. Matt runs the same prompt set through Midjourney, DALL·E, Adobe Firefly, Stable Diffusion, Leonardo, and others, and grades them on the dimensions the article cares about — accuracy, realism, illustration, logos, text, price.

Basic familiarity with prompt-to-image tools and at least one concrete image task.
