I thought the same. Business lingo has really jumped the shark. "story" is already stupid enough, but "epic"? Seriously? :-D
I assumed this was standard terminology for Jira? It's been the same for me at two completely different tech companies.

#23If AI is so great, these price rises will pay for themselves many times over..... Have any HNer's experienced or observed any productivity increases, or even any utility increases from co pilot?

It might be standard terminology but to outsiders like me it sounds like an over-the-top parody of corporate speak.

I don't disagree - I worked on a task management system many years ago and task and subtask always made a lot more sense than story and task. And epic should just be project.
I've worked with customers who stories worked well because the concept is just to talk through use-cases. Others have been involved in building software previously and it's overkill.
Current corpo job uses the phrase stories, but refuses to get involved with any planning or spec building so task and subtask would make more sense, but subtasks aren't visible on the board and we aren't allowed to update it.
We also aren't allowed to move a task back, so every time someone accidentally moves the wrong task we have to cancel it and recreate it. Such a pain.

Copilot actually can search outlook emails on Mac. This is the greatest achievement of any AI.
