The Edge: Reese and Ashley hate polar bears

Morgan Fogarty,

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Reese Witherspoon is pushing back after a social media firestorm over her comments on artificial intelligence.

The Oscar winner recently urged women to start learning AI, calling it the future of business and filmmaking. Critics slammed the message, raising concerns about job loss, environmental impact, and threats to creativity.

Now, Witherspoon is responding, saying no one is paying her to promote AI and insisting she’s simply trying to understand a rapidly changing world.
