AUCTeX has some predefined values in `TeX-view-program-list-builtin'[1]
which look the same as the values above.  So in theory, it should be
sufficient to delete the setting above of `TeX-view-program-list' and
just do:

;; Select the viewers for each file type.
(setq TeX-view-program-selection
      '((output-dvi "open")
        (output-pdf "Skim")
        (output-html "open")))

I'm not on macOS so I can't test it.

Best, Arash
