If you work in a regulated data environment, you already know you can't just send your SQL Server query plans to a cloud LLM. After 18 months of building on a single RTX 3090, I'm excited to share the solution: Bob, an autonomous, locally-hosted AI agent for SQL Server self-healing that never lets your data leave the LAN. Today I'm releasing The Birth of Bob—a completely free book detailing the architecture, the code, and why local inference is the only viable answer for DBAs drowning in 200-page health reports. Check out the article below to read it, join the AI-for-DBAs community, and drop your own 3 AM database war stories in the comments. https://minsondata.com/birth-of-bob
