Interesting. I'm saying that I bet he could more easily disguise his troll identity by filtering everything through an AI / LLM before he posted it. It would be easier now to disguise himself to an AI evaluation. I think. I don't know that. I've already admitted that I don't work with LLM/AI. It's an opinion based on my other work.

Edit: Ok, Sorry. My thinking is probably not very clear. I asked my husband and he understands and he does, but he's also a tech person. I don't think I'm explaining myself well.

I agree with what you are saying CantBeMeEither.

I agree. I'm saying that there was less access to technology to disguise the poster and post in 2017. Retroactively, the determination of those posts linguistically being by the same person in 2017 should be different then right now. There is more access to technology now to detect the patterns. Was gemini around in 2017? If so, maybe it could not have detected that post as a troll back then, but it could now. Further, I'm thinking that poster could have disguised their identity better today by using AI/LLM to process their thoughts before posting them. They might not be perceived as a troll if they post a similar idea right now, but they post it through an AI filter which filters the trollness.

Ugh. I still don't think I'm explaining this well. I'm sorry.

Thank you guys for cluing me in smile

God I can't wait to get access to the archives... Popping corn for a deep dive

Far too often in our hasty, mad quest to *Be Loved,* we lose sight of the fact that we are inherently, uniquely, and divinely *Loveable.*

If someone were to take part in sockpuppeting...meaning holding two separate identities on a forum...without expressly disclosing to the members, I firmly believe despite the fact that although both account interactions may be worthwhile, in my opinion it still represents someone who is not yet living with full integrity.

Why? Because there is an inherent deception towards the members.

I guess if the two profiles had absolutely no interaction or never even referred to each other, it possibly could be seen as harmless.

But if one profile comments to the other profile, this IMO is manipulative and that person would be well served to learn to be more authentic, even if that mean showing multifaceted side of their personality...but under one identity.
