There was this movie called 'Oblivion', one of the concepts suggested in the movie was- Interstellar travel being so hostile for biological life only real and practical way of ever encountering a life form would be in the form a machine/AI.
You don't need to travel in your biological bodies. You can upload your brains to the AI and then have the machine basically run forever. The machine becomes your universe, and it figures out how to best survive in the universe(Mine planets, asteroids, prepare better versions of it self etc etc)
