Context

Google AI describes an that acts under the user's direction and connects with Gmail, Docs and Slides to automate workflows. Its May 19 announcement explicitly says Spark can keep working even when the laptop is closed. The post said Spark's rollout would begin the following week, so this describes the announced design rather than shipped behavior.
