At some point in time, the advancing technology will invent self-assembling, self-making robots whose population will increase exponentially. That invention will either take us to new, better levels of living or end us? AI’s, the long times that it takes to travel around space won’t be a barrier to travel the way it is today. A journey at just 1% of the speed of light which would take 1,000–1,500 years to cross the far distance between stars will be meaningless in the lives of those beings. Those beings will effectively be immortal, and they will not see time as an obstacle. And they will not creatures called "human" anymore.
