Role of humans in a world with super-intelligence

 There are conversations about AI reaching the so-called "super intelligent" level, at which point it will (1) become a much better inventor than humans, (2) keep improving itself, and (3) quickly learn to do everything that humans can, except for the things that require a biological body.  

If this super-intelligent system is truly intelligent, it would realize that humans would be unhappy without a purpose-less life style. It would create instability. Additionally, this super-intelligence would realize that humans serve a very important purpose - they are the bridge between the biological world and the silicon-based intelligence. Humans have forgotten what all they have in common with animals - the deeper feelings that are shared with all living things. While non-biological entities may learn to "feel" in their own way, biological feelings will still be different. The feeling humans share with other living things are also the source of real wisdom and human-to-human connection. The super-intelligence will realize this and create a space, much like national parks, where humans live with nature and each other in a purpose-driven setting.
