\nLongoria said her “life’s work” has been about supporting female entrepreneurs<\/p>\n
Eva Longoria has said growing up around role model women meant she “always knew” she’d be successful.<\/p>\n
The Hollywood actress, producer and businesswoman said an entrepreneurial mindset came from an early age.<\/p>\n
“I grew up with amazing women in my life \u2013 my aunt, my mum \u2013 all independent, intelligent, educated women,” she told the Press Association.<\/p>\n
“I always knew I\u2019d be successful because every woman around me was successful.<\/p>\n
“I didn\u2019t know what industry I would be in, I didn\u2019t know if I\u2019d be a dentist or a lawyer or a sports therapist, but I knew I\u2019d be successful.”<\/p>\n
Longoria said her “life\u2019s work” has been about supporting female entrepreneurs, particularly advocating for Latino communities and working with small businesses through the Eva Longoria Foundation.<\/p>\n
But the American actress acknowledged that there were lots of uncertainties about how AI is shaping the world, particularly in the media and creative industries.<\/p>\n
“AI is definitely at the forefront of everybody\u2019s mind in the media landscape,” she told PA.<\/p>\n
“I think people are trying to navigate, is AI a tool that is helping us make better content, or is it a competitor? Is it a competitor that will replace a lot of these jobs?<\/p>\n
“And I think in quite a short of amount of time, we\u2019ll be able to tell.<\/p>\n
“Where AI makes me nervous is in the manufacturing of news and information \u2013 not truth, but information.<\/p>\n
“That makes me nervous \u2013 images that can rile up communities and countries against another country that may not be true.”<\/p>\n
\nLongoria said her “life’s work” has been about supporting female entrepreneurs<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Longoria said she liked “diversifying” her work, which has involved a number of business ventures including as the part-owner of Mexican football club Club Necaxa and investment in women\u2019s club Angel City FC.<\/p>\n
But she added: “The tent pole of my circus is still acting.<\/p>\n
“I do think you have to still do things that are authentic to who you are.”<\/p>\n
