Google is testing not just large titles for grouped snippets but also large titles that are fully bolded for Google Ad results.

Google is not bolding the title because it matches anything in the search query box. It is just bolding the title because it is testing a new look, I suspect.

I do not like bold things... :)

Forum discussion at Twitter.
