[ExI] AI-generated music videos

[Brent Allsop]

That's not what AI is best at! ;) yet.
Bruce R McConkie was an infamous LDS apostle, renowned for his staunch view
that the Mormon Church wasa the only true and living church.
Jim Bennet took an AI, and modified one of Bruce R's speeches to proclaim
his podcast to be the one and only true podcast, obviously making fun of
Bruce R.
This may not be funny to someone who is not LDS and/or doesn't remember
Bruce R making this speach about how the LDS church is the only true
church.  Most LDS today are very dismissive of this view and I love this
and never stop laughing at how absurd it made Bruce R's primitive views
appear.

You don't need to listen to the whole podcast, just the AI modified version
of Bruce R's speech at the beginning.
