Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem warned that artificial intelligence could disrupt the economy by destroying jobs and fueling inflation through overinflated tech stocks. While AI has the potential to increase business productivity, Macklem cautioned that the benefits may take a long time to materialize.

The Bank of Canada has launched a public consultation regarding the potential issuance of a "Digital Canadian Dollar" (CBDC). Officials claim the digital currency would function like cash but without the need for physical bills, while critics worry about government surveillance and programmability. The hosts reminisce about old manual credit card "knuckle buster" machines as a more private alternative to modern digital payments.

The Bank of Canada is researching a "digital loonie" CBDC, which proponents claim will offer the anonymity of cash while preventing money laundering. Critics pointed out the inherent contradiction in "authenticated" digital wallets that also claim to protect privacy, suggesting the system will be used for total financial surveillance. The segment also touched on the future of QR codes in commerce, including their use for "preloaded" credits at restaurants like Waffle House.
