Non esiste alcuna relazione tra il volto di una persona e la sua intelligenza

È impossibile e sbagliato pensare di prevedere il comportamento di una persona dal suo aspetto.

Giudicare le capacità di una persona dalla faccia non ha nulla di scientifico.

Peter Claes: "I nostri risultati confermano che non c'è alcuna prova genetica di un nesso tra il volto di una persona e il suo comportamento. Ci dissociamo quindi in modo esplicito dalle ipotesi pseudoscientifiche che affermano il contrario. Ad esempio, alcuni sostengono di essere in grado di rilevare le tendenze aggressive di una persona dal viso attraverso strumenti che sfruttano l'intelligenza artificiale. Questi progetti non sono solo del tutto immorali, ma sono anche privi di fondamento scientifico".

A ulteriore dimostrazione giunge una ricerca delle università di Stanford e KU Leuven, che ha individuato 76 geni che influiscono sia sulla forma del cervello che sulla struttura del volto, ma che non hanno nulla a che fare con il comportamento o le capacità cognitive di una persona.
