GPT-AdBlocker for Chrome promises to block all ads, including ads in videos

stapp · Jul 19, 2023

It was only a matter of time before a developer would come up with an idea to use AI tools for content blocking on the Internet.
GPT-AdBlocker is a free browser extension for Google Chrome that uses AI to block advertisement. The developers promise that it blocks all ads, including ads that are shown in videos. The extension works in other Chromium-based browsers, including Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera or Vivaldi as well.

I tested it against uBlock Original and the truth is that it blocks nothing. Removed.

AdGuard was not impressed, but liked the idea:

The emergence of an AI-powered ad blocking extension is an intriguing and a potentially transformative development in the field. The goal of the extension is to detect and remove sponsored segments from videos, and it does that, but not all of them, and not completely. Sometimes it leaves “leftovers” of sponsored ads, sometimes it cuts the video rather crudely. Sometimes it works nearly perfectly, but rarely.
