摘要

文学对我们的认知过程有着深远的影响,它不仅塑造了我们的思维方式,也塑造了我们的思维内容。尤其是审美体验,似乎会对我们理解复杂性的能力产生积极影响。这种影响凸显了文学在价值学习和伦理研究探索中的重要作用,因为评估任何决策都需要尽可能广泛的参照系。此外,文学在丰富我们对外部世界和内在自我的感知方面发挥着举足轻重的作用,从而提高了我们的伦理鉴别力。在本文中,我将通过研究石黑一雄的《克拉拉与太阳》来探讨最后一个观点。在这一探究中,我揭示了围绕心灵上传的两个关键争议之间的联系:以道德感知理论为中心的认识论辩论和对个人身份的本体论探究。研究这两个重大问题的交叉点,是我决定采用概念综合法作为方法论框架的指导思想。此外,我还将论证石黑浩的乌托邦中出现的道德认知和个人身份观念与查尔斯-泰勒的叙事主义假说是一致的。在结论中,我认为机器人取代人类的前景取决于向机器灌输独特的道德认知这一挑战。这仍然是一个难以实现的目标,也许永远难以实现,因为我们根本无法将能够理解和处理物质的非客观品质的机器客观化。此外,即使我们能够创造出这样一台机器,它也很可能会拒绝承担替代性角色,因为它会很快发现并欣赏自身的存在。最后,我思考了将模拟人误认为真实复制品的影响,即一次不成功且未被察觉的思想上传尝试--孤独。

Exploring moral perception and mind uploading in Kazuo Ishiguro's ‘Klara and the Sun': ethical-aesthetic perspectives on identity attribution in artificial intelligence
Literature wields a profound influence on our cognitive processes, shaping not only how we think but also what we think about. Aesthetic experiences, in particular, seem to foster a positive impact on our ability to comprehend complexity. This influence underscores the significant role of literature in the exploration of value learning and ethics research, because evaluating any decision-making requires seeking the widest possible frame of reference. Furthermore, literature plays a pivotal role in enriching our perception of both the external world and our inner selves, thereby fostering a heightened sense of ethical discernment. In this paper, I explore this last idea by examining Kazuo Ishiguro's Klara and the Sun. In this enquiry, I reveal connections between two crucial controversies surrounding mind uploading: the epistemological debate centered on the theory of moral perception and the ontological inquiry into personal identity. Researching the intersection of these two big issues guide my decision to employ conceptual synthesis as the methodological framework. Besides, I will argue that the ideas of moral perception and personal identity that emerges in Ishiguro's dystopia are in tune with the narrativist hypothesis of Charles Taylor. In my conclusions, I defend that prospect of replacing a human being with a robot hinges on the challenge of instilling the machine with a unique moral perception. This remains an elusive goal, perhaps perpetually so, due to the inherent impossibility of objectifying a machine capable of apprehending and processing the non-objective qualities of matter. Furthermore, even if we were able to create such a machine, it would likely resist assuming a substitutive role, as it would quickly discover and appreciate its own existence. Finally, I ponder the implications of mistaking a simulation of human for an authentic replica, namely, an unsuccessful and unnoticed attempt at mind uploading—loneliness.
