'LEGO officially entered the AI art wars with a marketing misstep that's worse
than stepping on a Lego brick barefoot in the middle of the night.

In a Ninjago character quiz on Lego.com, the company released a series of ten
images that were clearly (and worse, poorly) AI-generated. The blunder was
first spotted by the eagle-eyed @legoanimegirl on X (formerly Twitter).

Obviously, fans were up in arms today, including one of the co-creators of
Ninjago, Tommy Andreasen, who wrote: "This is just lousy in all aspects."'
