AB - As an empiricist, D. Hume judged the reality or fiction of ideas based on impressions created through ‘experience.’ Hume divides human perception into impressions and ideas. An impression means perception, and an idea is an afterimage of a perceived impression. Accordingly, ideas can never arise without impressions.
Hume explains the space and time of the past, present, and future. He says that the perception experienced in the present time and space is the most vivid. In contrast, because the future cannot be experienced due to human limitations in time and space, empiricists, including Hume, regard the future as a world full of fiction.
This article explores the ethical implications of the fictitiousness of future time that cannot be experienced as argued by empiricists including Hume. How should we deal with the ethical issues that will arise in a time and space that cannot be imagined or experienced in the future world due to the development of science and technology? Based on Hume's argument, this article explores the fiction of future time and the ethical implications of a future time filled with that fiction, and at the same time presents an alternative.
