I think there was a Lem work like this. Many of his works had robotic societies and cultures, and I think in one there is a reference to a creation myth about how robots formed. The idea that non-robots formed the robots was considered rubbish. I think it might have been a story in a compilation like the Cyberiad. Edit: I don't think this was the story I was looking for, but there is "Prince Ferrix and the Princess Crystal," contrasting robots and the general disgusting nature of squishy non-robots.
