    Seeing as these ads will be targeted and of varying length, I wonder if a SponsorBlock-like extension with the ability to accept training data from users to help identify ads.

    The Plex server application has a feature which scrubs videos and identifies intros so you can skip them like you can on Netflix. Wouldn’t it be sort of like that?

    Seems like a good use of AI/ML.

      The fucked up part is that I have to use SponsorBlock even with Premium. I thought I was paying for no ads…like wtf?
