Abstract
This paper examines Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun (2021) [4] as a dystopian work that explores the ethical dilemmas posed by artificial intelligence (AI) and the commodification of human life. Through the character of Klara, an Artificial Friend (AF), Ishiguro delves into themes of loneliness, social stratification, and the dehumanizing aspects of technology. The novel’s setting, where genetic editing and automation create a divided society, reflects a dystopian world where human emotions are manipulated and relationships are commodified. This paper situates Klara and the Sun within the broader framework of dystopian literature and explores its connections to contemporary technological and ethical debates.
