Machine translation and neural machine translation are part of the much larger framework of AI. Machine translation is a subset of natural language processing.

Depending on the data with which a machine translation model is trained, it can be very effective for specialist texts, for example in the legal, financial, or Life Sciences domain. Machine translation suitability also depends on the purpose of the text or the reader. If you want to for example simply understand the broad focus and the gist of an academic text, raw or pure machine translation can be helpful.
