machine translation is great for short sentences and signs and stuff like that if you're doing it for yourself and have some context for what it might mean, but companies using it for literally everything and not even having someone check it over was the worst thing to happen to it

I mean used responsibly machine translstion can be a useful tool. It usually gets the general idea of a news article written for general audiences for instance, and it's a godsend when you order something and it arrives with instructions in Japanese and Korean, neither of which you speak. But using it to prepare something for publication? that's just silly.
