I tried my first post with Microsoft translate:

Freddie Farnsworth left his house to go shopping. He took his car to the store, but took a wrong turn and drove off a cliff. The cliff was 100 feet high, but he survived with only a small fracture in his skull. He got out of his car moments before it blew up, then climbed the cliff and bought some whiskey.

Translated French, Hindi, Russian, English:

Freddie Farsworth left home to go shopping. He took his car to the store, but took a wrong turn and got off a cliff. The rock was 100 feet tall, but it survived only with a small skull fracture. He got out of the car a few minutes before it exploded, then climbed a rock and bought whiskey.

Translated German, Serbian, Arabic, English:

Freddy Farnsworth left the house to go shopping. He drove to the store, but took a wrong turn and got out of the abyss. The stone was 30 feet high, but she survived with a small fracture in her skull. A few minutes before the trip, he got out of the car, then climbed a rock and bought whiskey.

Translated to French, then Hindi, then Russian, then back to English:

Freddy Farnsworth went shopping. He drove to the store, but turned around and climbed off the cliff. The stone was 100 feet high, but it survived a small broken skull. A few minutes before the trip, he got out of the car, climbed a rock, and bought a whiskey.

They're slightly different, and when I accidentally did Latin Serbian instead of Cryllic Serbian, they were very different.

I know, Tribe11, we were just making fun of it. AI translators will never be as good as multi-lingual people.

I translated “Hi, my name is Bob, I eat fries” 3 times and got “Well, my name is Bob, I eat sweet potatoes”
