Midjourney allegedly blocked StabilityAI employees from its service following an attack last weekend. StabilityAI denies involvement.

Last weekend, Midjourney experienced a 24-hour outage that the company believes resulted from “botnet-like activity from paid accounts.”

However, even with potentially devastating punishments, DDoS-related outages are not uncommon. Of course, outages due to technical errors and bad luck occur too. Not every outage is the result of malice. So, what makes this particular Midjourney outage noteworthy?, Midjourney’s “Office Hour,” which are company news recaps for Midjourney employees and users, allege that Stability AI employees are behind the Midjourney outage.

Stability AI’s founder and CEO, Mohammad Emad Mostaque, known as Emad, has denied the allegations on X. David Holz, Midjourney’s CEO, jumped into the conversation as well, adding that he had sent Emad “some information” that would help Stability AI with its international investigation into the claims.
