Need advice from a software programmer

So I got accepted into a job that is requiring me to take like ten online video courses. The slide plays and then I have to manually click “next slide.” The problem? There are at least 40-60 slides in each course. The last course took me over an hour. I’m not getting paid for ANY of this. And I want so bad to just say fuck it, but I literally cannot. So programmers of Reddit, is there anyway to program the slides so that they auto play without any input from me? I’ll just have it running in the background like an audiobook or something. (I tried googling and couldn’t find anything. I enabled “auto play” on safari, but that hasn’t changed anything) Edit: apparently auto clickers do not work. They’ll work for the pause the video button, but not the next slide button. I’m not sure how they managed…
