the universe did not invent meaning when it created us; we invented meaning. we are the cause of meaning solely because it is a concept which only makes sense from a human perspective. it's only relevant to humans and only humans can do it, which makes it important to us intrinsically. the universe cannot be the arbiter as the universe is not intelligent.
The look on john's face in the last 9 seconds of the video is priceless.

"The universe has created us as sentient lifeforms to do meaning ascription."
The universe created us to do the job the universe did when it created us?
Also if the universe granted us this meaning ascription then the universe would be the arbiter.
Still watching the rest.

Whenever I see videos like these from you, I get a little sad when they end.
