🔴 **Machine learning is bringing back an infamous pseudoscience used to fuel racism**

Mihai Andrei

_“The pseudoscientific framework of physiognomy laid a foundation for systemic racism, influencing fields like anthropology, criminology, and eugenics. These biases were embedded into societal structures and used to justify slavery, segregation, and colonialism. While physiognomy has been debunked as junk science, its legacy persists — and this is apparent in the new wave of AI physiognomy studies.”_
