Marcello Herreshoff is brilliant for any age.  Like some other of our
Fellows, he has been a top-scorer in the Putnam competition.  He's been a
finalist in the USA Computing Olympiad twice.  He lives and breathes
mathematics -- which makes sense because his dad is a math teacher at Palo
Alto High School.  Because Friendly AI demands so many different skills, it
makes sense for people to custom-craft their careers from the start to
address its topics.  That way, in 2020, we will have people have been
working on Friendly AI for 10-15 years solid rather than people who have
been flitting in and out of Friendly AI and conventional AI.
