Like all other animals, humans evolved to be more likely to procreate. There is an argument that all of that other stuff we do is just in support of procreation. But in a way, it's also a distraction and an impediment to procreation. It just so happens that we've been unable to avoid doing that other stuff so far.

Even animals do other things though they play and socialise.

Personally if AI makes working irrelevant I'm just going to spend most of my time in Disneyland.
