I don't know of a single atheists who has arrived at that conclusion.

Purpose, after all, can exist without sentience after we have logically assigned meaning to a life. A seed, being a part of nature, has the sole purpose of growing into a plant that will reproduce so that its existence can be carried forward, all this meaning we have assigned by comprehending its existence.
