Should central banks use innovative Industry 4.0 technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain to manage monetary policy?

Modern technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain have the potential to revolutionise the way monetary policy is conducted. However, their use in macroeconomic analysis, inflation prediction and payment system management raises a number of questions regarding effectiveness, security and impact on the stability of the financial system. AI and blockchain technologies can significantly improve the effectiveness of monetary policy by enabling faster and more accurate data analysis, forecasting of inflationary trends and better liquidity management in financial markets. Central banks could use artificial intelligence to automatically optimise interest rates and regulate the money supply based on predictive models. Blockchain, on the other hand, can increase the transparency and security of transactions in payment systems by eliminating intermediaries. However, the application of these technologies carries the risk of algorithmic decision errors, vulnerability to cyberattacks and unpredictable consequences for financial markets. This dilemma requires an interdisciplinary analysis combining macroeconomics, computer science, cybersecurity and financial regulations.
