Not true. The problem with Google captioning and translate is that unlike a weak speaker it makes critical mistakes completely misunderstanding the point.
A weak speaker may use a cognate, idiom borrowed from their native tongue or a similar wrong word more often. The translation app produces completely illegible word salad instead.
