My guess is that something like 90% of translation - e.g product manuals, websites etc are now machine translated. Order a random item from China and take a look at their product manual - it's very likely that it's machine translated and not by a person.

Yes and with luck, at least one language you know how to read will make sense and not be off-the-wall bonkers or simply incomprehensible.
