I wonder if robots ever become a thing will they experience gender similarly to humans, or will they not have similar experiences with gender? It’s an interesting question, and one that’s difficult to answer because unlike how early sci-fi implied, sentient robots likely won’t be programmed by hand, but trained, similar to how modern (but still primitive by comparison to sentient robots) AI models are trained.
Given that humans already have practically infinite diversity of experience with gender along many different axes, I think that while the means may be very different, there will be lots of overlap.

There probably would be a lot of overlap since a lot of what they would learn about in training would be based on human
experiencespresentation.
