According to Google's AI, pollination is either not required or is a specialized activity that requires special bugs.

Figs, a unique "inside-out" fruit, require pollination by tiny fig wasps in some varieties. These wasps, specific to each fig species, enter the fig through a tiny opening, pollinate the flowers inside, and lay their eggs. The process, called "caprification," is essential for seed production in certain fig types like Smyrna and San Pedro varieties. However, "common" fig varieties, like Brown Turkey, do not require pollination and produce fruit without insect assistance
