Ah damn, I have it and enjoyed it a lot - it's fun! The card assets have always been obviously generic, store-bought assets... but at least they were still made by humans. I remember the first AI controversy in that game, I think it was centered around the main menu's background image, where the castle turrets and towers kinda didn't line up.
I don't know how I feel about this, on one hand this is such an incredibly niche product that I can understand wanting to save every scrap of money, but it sets a bad precedent going forward.
About that bad precedent, the next game. And yes the game is fun, in a niche way. It is sad the ai art draws everything down. It always has a weird tonal mismatch with the rest and the names of the cards, and it is wet.
