Would you care to support that statement at all, rather than just asserting it? Because I see no reason why a sufficiently advanced brain, composed as it is of physical processes, could not self-determine its own purpose and meaning.
And please don't insult us both by demanding that all purpose and meaning needs to be externally derived, as I'm fairly sure you're going to; covering for one assertion with a second assertion is hardly good argumentation, but more importantly it's also not true, as plenty of human inventions began as additional purposes assigned to objects that didn't originally serve them once new properties or uses for those objects were discovered.
