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.
