It heavily varies by person. Some people give AMAs that make you question if the responses are even from the real person ("let's just talk about Rampart") but other people's AMAs are really fascinating and feel like you're getting a genuine answer to your question (pretty much any AMA that hit BestOf). Even if the AMA is only done for publicity purposes, it can still be interesting and that's what really matters.
One of my favorite threads was an AMA from Nick Offerman in like 2012. Mostly I liked how if you looked at his comments in order, you could see him getting drunker as the thread went on, eventually posting answers to the wrong questions.
Some are fascinating, some are shitty. Even the train wrecks can be entertaining, Lil Durk and Gunna's AMAs are personal favorites of mine
