Les filles auxquelles je pense sont géniales

Why is this correct?  Isn't "quel, quelle etc." only for things? and while Les filles à qui je pense sont géniales is correct is there a difference in meaning between the two?

You can say either, there's no difference in meaning.

Les filles à qui je pense or Les filles auxquelles je pense.

The version with à qui is, however, only possible with people and not with inanimate objects. It also sounds a bit more formal.
