Save a game against the AI?

I like to spar against the AI but unless I am missing something, I don't think there is a way to save a game in progress and come back to it later.  From what I can tell, as soon as you close your browser, the game is erased.  I've seen another chess site enable the ability for a player to come back to a game against the AI by allowing the player to designate such a game as a CC "daily" game. which then allows a multi-day time control and saves your progress.   Something similar here would be nice!

Yes, but i think it is meant to not waste the opponents time when someone leaves the game like that

You can save the PGN, then use that to import into the Analysis Board and Finish vs Computer

True, but that is an awkward workaround.  It would be a lot easier just to be able to start a game against the AI, using whatever time control you like, and have it be saved as a game in progress automatically just like any other game against a human.  I hope to see Chess.com have this one day as I find it a really convenient feature over at another site.
