"Don't get us wrong, we love YouTube's new automatic captioning feature. A couple of years ago it was almost unimaginable that someone (or something) could take videos, convert speech to text, then translate that text into 20 or 30 languages, and do it all automatically, in a blink of an eye.\nBut we also know that machine translation is not even near replacing human translation, and speech recognition isn't exactly perfect yet. Machine translation alone will often get you hilarious results; add translation to the mix, and the translations often end up being very weird. Now, users are noticing it and already posting funny examples like this one. \nIn fact, a simple Twitter search will reveal many similar examples, ranging from unfortunate to hilarious. We're posting several favorites below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat's your favorite YouTube caption fail?
