Google posted in the data anomalies page for Search Console under the Accelerated Mobile Pages Report that they updated the report based on updating their "scanning process" for errors. It reads:

I asked John Mueller about this and he said on Twitter:

It's an internal change re which AMPs to include in that report; it doesn't affect indexing/ranking. Confusing timing, sorry :-/

Yes, confusing times.
