They are all just formats for structured data, just like XML.  You can
write JSON files intended for human consumption (if by that you mean
"meant to be edited by a human"), and you can use YAML/TOML to share
data between programs.  That's just an aspect of how the format is
used in a given application, and is not inherent to the format itself.

Just to give one example, Hugo supports configuration written in
either one of YAML, TOML or JSON:
