I would not interpret the words of Elder Gong as anti AI. The LDS church is highly invested in AI. Data archiving, management and mining has always been a priority for the church. AI is perfect sauce to add to the existing software capabilities.
What concerns LDS leaders is AI being used to challenge the church and its leaders and standing. This is the same concern government leaders have. Everyone in an establishment position is worried of the powers of AI to persuade people to distrust them.
And frankly, we all should be worried about AI being used to manipulate minds. This does not mean censorship is the solution. It does invite consideration of regulations that inform people that what they are seeing is fake and artificial. I suppose that real actual politicians lying and misleading is OK, but enabling mass production of fake & artificial lying politicians is too much!

"The EA ecosystem produced Sam Bankman-Fried, not Billy Graham.""
All things weighted, even a dozen SBF are preferrable to one Billy Graham.
You can’t be serious - Billy Graham built enduring communities of faith. Sam Bankman-Fried built a fraudulent and corrupt financial enterprise.
Exactly, what Western society needs is more Billy Graham and the teaching of durable truths and less self- promoters of ephemeral comforts.
