This week’s Cash News Podcast is an AI-powered takeover. Using the Federal Reserve’s 2024 Diary of Consumer Payment Choice, we break down the paradox of modern payments.

Tune in as AI digs into the data, explains what’s driving these trends, and explores why cash still plays an essential role in a digital-first economy.
