Waking up in a panic – AI in finance

What happens when a CFO realises their 20 years of experience might not protect them from becoming obsolete? In this episode, host Vilde Opsal sits down with Vend CFO Per Christian Mørland and AI Tools and Integration Specialist Thomas Eide to talk about the reality of bringing AI into finance. PC shares the middle-of-the-night panic that pushed him to sign up for our internal builder program, drop social media, and block out hours every day to learn coding basics. Together with Thomas, they explore why AI problems are almost always data problems in disguise, how pairing domain experts with technical builders changes everything, and how real-time data access is replacing traditional reporting tools.
