-    "To this end, it is recommended to use the top level `search()` method to run `DefaultAlgorithm`. This allows users to specify running search with just the `mode` parameter, where `fast` is recommended for users who want a fast scan at how EvalML pipelines will perform on their problem and where `long` is reserved for a deeper dive into high performing pipelines. If one needs finer control over AutoML parameters, one can also specify `automl_algorithm='default'` using `AutoMLSearch` and it will default to using `fast` mode. However, in this case ensembling will be defined by the `ensembling` flag (if `ensembling=False` the abovementioned ensembling batches will be skipped). Users are welcome to select `max_batches` according to the algorithm above (or other stopping criteria) but should be aware that results may not be optimal if the algorithm does not run for the full length of `fast` mode."
