Biological Beings do not have a purpose, while non-biological Beings do

It is not the purpose of biological Beings to process information. The above points relate to what Beings can and will do, because it is in their nature to do so. However, information processing is not their purpose (this purpose is not the processing-operation-specific, Reason-relevant purpose, see §04.01.03). It is not the purpose of Beings to process information (but rather it is what they do while they are alive). In fact, biological Beings have no specific purpose whatsoever, while non-biological Beings do have a purpose, the one given to them by humans at the moment they were created (see also §05.00.11. On the state having no specific purpose, see §02.00.09. On the (many) purposes of artificial Beings, see §02.00.12).
