Google Gray Light Logo

Google is testing another variation to the title links in the Google Search results - a light gray effect. So when you hover your mouse cursor over the snippet, the title link turns grayed and washed out.

This was spotted by Sachin Patel who posted some videos of this on X - here is an image from that video:
