Paste several links at once. Yank finds the five things worth knowing in each, with their sources, then read them in turn, or play them through: videos and podcasts in their own voices, everything else read aloud by an AI voice.

Videos and podcasts play in their own players, from two seconds before each line. Articles and documents are read aloud by an AI voice from ElevenLabs, reading only the words already on each yank's page, or by your device's own voice if you choose it. It keeps playing if you go to another page.
Anthropic Blocked Attempts to Use Claude for Bioweapon Research
A network news report puts on the record Anthropic's own findings that its AI was used to research a highly pathogenic bird flu variant — and that a former researcher warned of extinction-level risk within a decade.
- A lab outside the U.S. gained access to Claude from an unsupported region, using the model to research a highly pathogenic bird flu variant and its potential transmission to humans.
- Anthropic published a report saying it blocked several possible attempts to use its AI models to help develop biological weapons.
- Anthropic says in each instance it banned the associated user accounts, adding they do not know if the users intended harm or were performing legitimate scientific work.
- They could cause extreme havoc — hacking critical infrastructure, building extinction-level bioweapons.
- A proposed AI kill switch bill would halt models if they pose a catastrophic risk.
