Once I respond 3NT to the robot's 3♠ enquiry, showing no interest in a minor suit game and promising major suit stoppers, that should be the end of it, unless the robot has significant extra strength and wants a minor suit slam (or 6NT). I do not expect the robot to ask me "are you sure partner? I really don't have many spades."

It is both a dumb agreement and a dumb choice, given the weakness of North's minors.
The bizarre compulsion to show shortage opposite a comfortable balanced hand is also present in the splinters (sic) over 1NT.
