To skip intros and sponsored content, I use SponsorBlock extension. It skips those segments automatically.

First time seeing this. Are the timestamps crowdsourced or AI generated? In your experience how accurate is it? I notice it's got <1000 reviews. I can see this really taking off in the next few years. Thanks a lot for the recommendation, I've installed it and look forward to seeing it in action.
Timestamps are crowdsourced, not AI generated (AFAIK). It is 100% accurate of most of the videos. Since it is crowdsourced, less famous videos or videos with less views won't be skipped during the sponsor content, but we can be a good citizen and add the timestamps ourselves to help others.
