I am currently writing a fictitious novel involving the singularity. For those of you who do not know, the singularity is when humans will merge with computers. My novel only uses the idea of the singularity, and expands it into a post apocalyptic world.
An incredibly popular futurist, Ray Kurzweil has championed the idea for quite some time. He wrote a book, called the "Singularity is Near".
My question is, should I try to secure permission from Mr. Kurzweil? I would prefer not to be sued by this incredibly powerful millionaire. For some reason I do not think that would work out in my favor.
Thanks!
