Google Gemini Search Bar

Google is testing letting searchers select the Gemini 3 model they want to use directly in the Google Search bar. The options can include, Pro, Fast or Auto, from what I can see.

The create images and deep search options I've seen before but not the option to select a Gemini 3 model.
