I've followed Caleb on YouTube for a while, due to his MtG content. He is PhD in Optical Sciences that makes some very interesting AI art. He has created a new card game with hand curated AI art and some interesting rules aimed at solving a bunch of the problems around existing collectible card games. He wrote an essay[1] about his design goals which is fascinating.
