I started automating my routine with Gemini Spark; now I can't go back
Google is merging its Spark personal AI agent into the primary Gemini chat application. The updated interface separates the experience into two distinct modes: a chat for general conversations and a tasks section where the agent performs actions. Gemini Spark is a free, cloud-based tool available on Android, iOS, and Mac that automates files, documents, calendars, and emails. This integration follows the introduction of the Gemini agent for work, described by Google Cloud as a universal agent for work.
