Yes look up any $server and #chat_room and you'll probably find one that has an almost elasticsearch quality search feature where you can specifically pick a user and see everything they've said and run sentiment values on it, etc. Sometimes they're not THAT public but someone is usually keeping them, you can even do it in your IRC client with a rolling txt log so its accessible to non-teceh users.

If you want a crazy trip look up irc logs on 9/11, and keep in mind most of the people on irc on 9/11 were middled aged in the 2000s and.. extremely unpleasant. Incredible amounts of anti-muslim, jew stuff, every single channel was ranting about muslims and turning iraq into glass.

These are just examples, you have the full text logs so I'm sure people are running them through AI and everything else now.
