Because it's there? The question raised was "where would they go". That's a weird place to raise "why would they go?" Isn't that most likely an entirely separate concern? Perhaps "why?" is an even broader field. From a biological "because there is compute power available", to a more by-definition "because it's independently intelligent - which kind of requires not-limited to answering human questions". But yes, motivation of an AGI is an interesting question and lack of body kinda a minor detail except to the few people that seem to claim that you can't be intelligent is you don't have a body.
