Google seems to be testing a new user experience for the "from sources across the web" search feature. Instead of showing a carousel or content on the search results page, Google is testing popping up an overlay that you can scroll through with more details.

I cannot replicate this but Gagan Ghotra shared a video of this in action on X. Here is a GIF of part of that video:

I am not sure I like this new test...
