Existentialism answers this question, the answer is yes, humanity can continue to find meaning and purpose in existence even if AI overtakes us in every measurable way from a task-accomplishment perspective. Why? Because we must make meaning from our experience. If we don’t, we don’t persist. The crushing weight of no meaning or purpose in our life activates our Thanatos, our drive to self destruct.

But beyond that, I don’t view it off the mark that the universe experiences itself through the myriad forms it has assumed since its hypothetical inception at the Big Bang. The universe can experience itself through the human perspective, through the AI. It’s an experience regardless of the frame of reference.
