Yapay zeka robotların günümüz dünyasında giderek artan bir şekilde kullanılması, bu meselelerin çağdaş edebiyat içerisinde de sıklıkla temsil edilmesine neden olmuştur. Özellikle sanal gerçeklik konusu üzerinde durmayı amaçlayan yazarlar, buradan hareketle gerçekliğin yeniden oluşturulması ve bu bağlamda toplumsal yaşamın yeniden şekillendirilmesini irdelerler. Ian McEwan, Machines Like Me adlı romanında Adam ile Eve adındaki yapay zeka robotların insan yaşamının her alanına nasıl dâhil olduklarını işler. Bu makalede, yapay zeka robotların McEwan’ın romanında nasıl irdelendiği ve postmodern etik bağlamında Baumancı açıdan etiğin ne derecede yeniden oluşturulduğu meseleleri tartışılmaktadır. İnsanların özel yaşamlarına dâhil olan yapay zeka robotların gerçeklik algısını yeniden yazdıkları örneğinden hareketle, etik ve ahlak olgularının da yeniden oluşturulduğu meselesi Bauman’ın postmodern etik değerlendirmesi ışığında ele alınmaktadır

The increasing use of artificial intelligence robots in today’s world has caused these issues to be frequently represented in contemporary literature. In particular, the authors, who aim to focus on the subject of virtual reality, examine the re-creation of reality and the reshaping of social life in this context. In his novel Machines Like Me, Ian McEwan also deals with how artificial intelligence robots named Adam and Eve are involved in human life. This article discusses how artificial intelligence robots are examined in McEwan's novel and to what extent ethics is reconstructed from a Baumanian perspective in the context of postmodern ethics. Based on the example that artificial intelligence robots, which are included in all parts of people’s private lives, rewrite their perception of reality, the issue of reconstructing ethical and moral phenomena is discussed in the light of Bauman’s postmodern ethical evaluation.
