Once aging is a non-issue, and people aren't motivated to have kids to continue their legacy, the issue of life impact becomes their next big target. What should they do with it? Does it even matter? At one time kids defined legacy... atleast genetically. Remove the kid quotient and you're going to find a bunch of ppl reaching and stretching to figure out 'why' any of it matters. Add in a bunch of sentient machines/robots.... and the whole system is gonna be a mess! But it's an exciting new age... and even more exciting that we'll get to be a part of it. bring in the “thought revolution” where ppl will become enlightened on a mass scale.
