Show HN: A Chrome Extension to Skip Introductions on YouTube (github.com)

1 points by break_the_bank 2y ago ↗ HN

I listen to a lot of podcasts and shows on YouTube. I was wondering if I could get GPT to skip the advertisements or any introductions that these shows generally start with.

Imagine a "skip intro" button like you have but for YouTube. You can run the API on your own computer for now and load up the chrome extension as it isn't published.

Would be neat to maybe integrate it into SponsorBlock, which has similar functionality (but is crowd-sourced instead of using ChatGPT)

Didn't know that was a thing! Over a million users, 4.8 rated. Will look into it.
