I\u2019m just a curious human. My kids are learning about AI tools, I know a lot of founders who are vibe coding, and I hear about people using AI in EVERY sector of business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tShe continued, \u201cBut I want to acknowledge people\u2019s concerns, they are valid. I\u2019m aware of the impact this could have on jobs across so many industries. I understand environmental concerns. I care deeply about local communities. And I have concerns about impending AGI. I don\u2019t believe computers should replace humanity. I\u2019m planning on learning as much as possible so that I\u2019m educated about this technological revolution. If you want to learn with me, great, let\u2019s do this! If you don\u2019t, that\u2019s okay too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWitherspoon has long been talking about artificial intelligence and encouraging her followers to become familiar with the technology, which is rapidly upending industries from Hollywood to tech. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s so, so important that women are involved in AI because it will be the future of filmmaking,\u201d Witherspoon\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2025\/film\/news\/reese-witherspoon-women-ai-hollywood-1236504755\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">told Glamour<\/a>\u00a0in September. \u201cAnd you can be sad and lament it all you want, but the change is here. It will never be a lack of creativity and ingenuity and actual physical manual building of things. It might diminish, but it\u2019s always going to be the highest importance in art and in expression of self.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tShe told the magazine that she uses AI Assistant as well as search tools like Perplexity and the AI shopping agent Vetted AI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWitherspoon isn\u2019t the only A-list actress talking about the AI revolution. Last week, Sandra Bullock said at the CNBC Changemakers Summit that AI is \u201chere\u201d and \u201cwe have to understand it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cWe have to lean into it,\u201d Bullock said. \u201cWe have to use it in a really constructive and creative way, make it our friend rather than \u2014 I mean, we have to be incredibly cautious and aware of it because there are people who will use it for evil and not good.\u00a0But I do feel that there\u2019s a place for it\u2026 It\u2019s here.
