Fediverse users debate policy discourse vs. AI influence

One user criticizes the focus on internal drama and statistically invalid polls, urging the community to address the complex challenges of AI and FOSS together. Another user suggests that while decentralized networks are important infrastructure, they lack the financial incentives and appeal for tech oligarchies compared to platforms focused on data, money, and influence, particularly as training grounds for AI.
