As the article points out:

  I think Jev is a good example of how great marketing fizzed out in the face of reality.
  Is it useful? Yes.
  Is it relevant? Yes.
  Is it dead? Just its hype.
  Is it revolutionary? Depends on your cost, quality, speed triangle.
  Is it as big as it was claimed? I hope you have the answer by now.

In a communist society there is no profit (or incentive for), thus no need for copyright laws.

It's not abolishing copyrights that would turn the US into a commie country, communism is about abolishing private ownership to the means of production.

Back in the day my jailbroken PS2 would run all sorts of CDs with pirated games. It was such a magical time, I would download all sorts of games and spend the evening discovering gems.

I'd say, if anything, this would make me less curious. The less you know, the better.

It says its main function is to recognize if the call is related to a previous incident already registered. If it is, then the AI provides an update on the matter, otherwise it directs the caller to a human

In my jurisdiction (Brazil) there is non-commercial use, but most people don't know about it.

The cards and its design, the font, the placing of text, it's all pretty common AI-esque.
