Geert Van Kerckhoven, CEO and co-founder of Oper Credits, told his company its share price would be zero in three years unless it went AI-native. He and James Barker talk about faster bank sales cycles, betting the business on an AI agent called Herman, and why he'd hire slowly. Roughly 95% of Oper's code is now written by AI agents, and Geert thinks the CEO will be replaced before the account executive.
