Google announced Gemini Spark at its I/O 2026 developer conference as a new always-on agentic personal assistant. The product is built on Gemini models and an agentic framework from Google Antigravity, with Gmail integration highlighted as part of the launch.

Why it matters: The launch shows Google pushing Gemini beyond chat and search into a more persistent assistant that can act across personal workflows. If Gemini Spark proves useful and trustworthy, it could raise competitive pressure around agentic consumer assistants and deeper integration with everyday productivity tools.
