Doubtful, translating Japanese to English is very annoying and nuanced that an AI would flub most of it most of the time.
It depends on how things develop. From 5 years ago to now, MTL is way, way better, even if far from perfect. With how much generative AI has improved in just a couple years, it's not unreasonable to think that other areas in AI will start making leaps and bounds from here. Right now, relying too much on AI would be silly, but hypothetical AI in two years could very well be amazing.
