No, the human curiosity is not assigned or decided upon by us, I don't think. All humans are curious, it is a "specialness" that we did not seem to decide upon.
Here is another angle: Where is the specialness? I heard a new report yesterday that the amount of DNA that is unique to humans is only about 1.5%. The number used to be higher and it has been whittled down until recently it got so low. Where in that 1.5% of unique DNA is everything that differentiates us as human? Or is it not there, we are looking in the wrong place?
