I do this to determine if a person I'm talking to online is potentially a troll. I copy a big chunk of their comment and post history into an LLM and ask for a profile.

The last few years, I've noticed an uptick in "concern trolls" that pretend to support a group or cause while subtly working to undermine it.

LLMs can't make the ultimate judgement call very well, but they can quickly summarize enough information for me to.

I would think you can get pretty accurate results by including the top 10 subreddits they are active in and their last 20 comments (and their score). Comments alone may not be enough, the reaction to them is more telling.

I used to try taking different samples, top versus controversial (for redditors), but now that Gemini offers massive context windows, I just grab a huge swath of everything.
