| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the TechMeme right home for Thursday, July 24th, 2025. I'm Brian McCullough. Today, |
| 0:09.3 | the White House has rolled out its big AI action plan. Google reported earnings, but really wanted |
| 0:14.4 | you to know about consumer adoption of its AI. A new Kindle ColorSoft T-Mobile Starlink service is available to anyone, and the Switch |
| 0:22.9 | 2 is now the fastest selling console in history. Here's what you miss today in the world of tech. |
| 0:33.1 | The White House yesterday unveiled the AI Action Plan, seeking to have tech dominance over China solidified, |
