Google is testing another new loading animation for sponsored results. We previously covered a different loading animation where Google showed logos while ads loaded, but today we spotted yet another variation. In this version, when a user searches for something, the sponsored results load using an animation similar to how AI Overview results load.

Here is a screenshot.
