OpenClaw at 300k stars as Spark arrives: the hosted vs. self-hosted AI agent showdown

OpenClaw, a self-hosted AI agent that users could run on their own hardware, surpassed 300,000 GitHub stars, while Google unveiled Spark, a 24/7 hosted Gemini-based agent that runs on Google Cloud and threads into Gmail, Docs, and Sheets. Both are converging on MCP for tool connectivity, but differ in substrate: OpenClaw emphasizes control and ownership of credentials and workflows, whereas Spark offers hands-free convenience with Google hosting the runtime and context. The choice boils down to privacy and autonomy versus ease of use and seamless integration, signaling a two‑tier future for AI agents.

Google's Gemini 3.5 Flash bets big on scalable agent AI and efficiency

Google rolls out Gemini 3.5 Flash across its products, touting frontier-level intelligence with far greater efficiency (about 300 tokens per second) to enable long-running agentic tasks. The update beats older Flash versions, approaches 3.1 Pro in performance, and rivals GPT-5.5 on benchmarks. It also introduces Spark, a cloud-based AI agent that can operate across Drive and Gmail, and outlines Omni Flash as a future multimodal model, with internal testing and phased rollouts including a new Ultra tier for Spark and upcoming Pro variants.
