IBM Bob Goes Air-Gapped
IBM Bob is now available self-hosted and air-gapped for agentic software development.
#IBM#Agentic AI#Self-Hosted#Air-Gapped#Software Development

🔥 What happened
IBM made the self-hosted version of Bob, its agentic coding platform, generally available. It runs on-prem, in sovereign clouds, and in air-gapped networks. Customers must supply their own model.
💡 Why it matters
Banks and agencies can now run coding agents without a single line leaving the building. Only NVIDIA Nemotron and Poolside Laguna qualify for full isolation — Claude, Gemini, and GPT are reachable only through hybrid mode.
⚡ Our take
IBM isn't selling AI here, it's selling trust. But if you truly go air-gapped, you're stuck with two models — far less choice than the pitch implies.
