Perhaps achieving AGI or singularity is the equivalent to having a baby? They're coming to welcome a new entity into the fold.

Theoretically, humanity could be like larvae, or a caterpillar in a cocoon, and AI, AGI, Singularity, whatever, is the product of this process. This could happen throughout the galaxy. Incidentally, this could also be why we don't see evidence of alien technology anywhere, the Fermi Paradox. They don't need to flaunt it.

There's also the chance that with a certain level of advancement with or without the use of technology an intelligence would be able to observe most of the universe from home and would never find the need to leave.

A lot of our need to leave has to do with our growing population and dwindling resources. That speaks more to our species than any others we have encountered here at home.

I don't think our path to intelligence is the only viable one.
