I also am not threatened by machine translation. I don't expect it to be perfect because I don't use it that way. I use Google sometimes just to get some ideas about different words I could use or how I could phrase something differently. It also saves time in typing words, since most of the ones you need are already there.

I am feeling slightly threatened by machine translation.

I am feeling slightly threatened by machine translation. Although it's obvious that every segment of text translated with Google Translate requires careful proofreading, sentence reordering and sometimes replacement of terms used, some of the text that Google Translate comes up with in my language pair in legal text is actually quite accurate and this is starting to worry me. I am doing a legal translation at the moment and was interested to see what results I got with Google Translate compared to my translations and I was surprised to see just how accurate some segments were. The segments all need rearranging and some terms replaced here and there but essentially could be edited. This indicates to me that for some language combinations and in some sectors of translation, documents could be edited from machine translations as the initial translation could be done through machine translation - perhaps not right away, but just imagine how this technology could progress over the next 10 years.
