Industrial knitting machines can make entire garments without human involvement, but a person will probably still fold it and sew a label onto it.

In theory yes but very few patterns can be made like this and the cost of such machines is not favorable. Often a linking machine or a cut and sew stage is needed and this is far more hand powered than anything else.
