Why Would a Robot Fish?

Sadly the question “why would a robot fish?” was shared in a private Facebook group, so I cannot share the entire question with you. But I can share my response.

“Some humans don’t fish for food, but for relaxation. But if robots need downtime, it doesn’t have to be at a stream with a pole.”

After thinking, I composed the prompt for the Google Gemini picture that illustrates this post.

“Create a realistic picture of a robot by a stream in the woods, fishing. The eyes and other parts of the robot’s head indicate that its internal controls are in maintenance mode, or that the robot is ‘relaxing.’”

My own content creation process with Bredemarket includes a “sleep on it” step which lets my brain reset before taking a fresh look at the content.

The generative AI equivalent is to take the output from the initial prompt, start a new independent chat, and write a second prompt to re-evaluate the output of the first prompt.

Which I guess would be “fishing.”
