This is far too premature.
AMA is a high amount of trust in the moderation team. You build trust by having assurances that the AMA hosts have done their research and prove that the person is who they say they are.
Where we need to start is: who around here is even capable of hosting AMAs? Are they willing to host AMAs to build a community/subreddit's trust? Etc. etc.
What's really cool about the fediverse IMHO is that you can have multiple reputable media outfits run their own AMA communities... want to hear from a sports star maybe ESPN could host their own community, movie star then idk rotten tomatoes, scientist someone else, etc... the concept is really fascinating. Still not there yet though. The platform still needs to mature ( which is doing quickly) and the community needs to grow.
