通过类人机器人克拉拉的视角，石黑一雄在《克拉拉与太阳》中探讨了后人类时代类人机器人的身份认同问题。本文运用拉康的镜像理论，分析了克拉拉对其他人工朋友（AF）及对人类行为的观察，并揭示了她与太阳之间崇拜关系的复杂性。克拉拉作为类人机器人，尽管能够模仿人类行为，却始终无法触及人类情感的核心，这一局限反映了人工智能在理解和体验人类情感方面的挑战。窗子和镜子象征了克拉拉与人类社会的联系与隔离，而太阳则代表她对自我价值和身份认同的追求。克拉拉的身份认同困境不仅反映了她的局限，也引发了我们对后人类时代人与人工智能关系的深思。
From the lens of the Artificial Friend Klara, Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun probes the complexities of identity in the posthuman era. Drawing on Lacan’s mirror stage theory, this essay examines Klara’s observations of other AFs and human behavior, uncovering the nuance of her reverential relationship with the Sun. Although Klara is capable of imitating human, she remains fundamentally disconnected from the essence of human emotion. This limitation underscores the broader challenges artificial intelligence faces in comprehending and embodying human affect. The mirror and the window serve as dual symbols of Klara’s connection to, also the alienation from human society, while the Sun emerges as a metaphor for her pursuit of self-worth and ontological recognition. Klara’s struggle with identity not only reveals the constraints inherent in her design but also invites a deeper reflection on the evolving interplay between humans and intelligent machines in the posthuman condition.
