As usual with questions in title, the answer is no. But IMO it’s a flawed comparison because no-one is going around and picking sponsored segments by hand and disabling them. So compared to other automatic tool, I’d say it works fine.
Edit: I have been enlightened in the comments that indeed there are such projects.
Pretty sure the block lists used by ad-blockers are still created by hand.

TIL. Updated the post.
TIL. That’s an interesting craft!
I’m using a sponsor skipper that is crowd sourced. Every user of the extension can flag an ad in a video.
