So if intelligence has a negative correlation with creativity than how do we have people like Conan O'Brien or Quentin Tarantino? This just feels like way too much of a blanket statement backed by faulty logic. Harvard, for example, has some really famous creative alumni, so did they admit average intelligence students? Or are they really not that creative?
