But probably engineers don't agree with me. So that means our prejudices, our misconceptions, our own hate and misunderstanding and discrimination is part of the data human beings created.
And also, do we mistreat the technology as we give it more and more lifelike responsibilities?ĬHUNG: From what I read, human beings really don't understand what we created, and artificial intelligence and deep learning, machine learning, all these things are structured so that the machine would accumulate experience and data and information and analyze them and draw conclusions more like human beings do. Like, do you think that society is too dependent on technology. And, you know, AI is advancing so quickly. RASCOE: One of your stories also deals with, like, robots and artificial intelligence, which everyone is talking about these days. And I hope that adds some fresh elements to the familiar structure. And I add a Korean reality, the things that I see or the things that I heard from somebody else and wed that kind of magical twist to it. And I really love that structure, so I try to use it whenever it seems fun. So you've described these stories as, quote, "like a fairy tale but with a little bit of a Korean twist."

Author Bora Chung joins us now to talk about her collection. It was translated from Korean by Anton Hur. Those are some of the bizarre, twisted plot lines in "Cursed Bunny," Bora Chung's first collection of short stories to appear in English, which was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize.
A girl whose brother feeds on her blood, robots that take revenge on their owner and a bunny lamp with a deadly curse.
