A reductionist would say that we can explain any phenomenon in the Universe because we know how atoms interact and everything is built out of atoms. When you ask why a tree grows, the answer that it grows because of the interactions between atoms is not useful and approaches the problem on too low level. Similarly a programmer can create artificial neurons and perfectly understand how these neurons operate on a low level, but it doesn't mean the programmer will understand the high level emergent phenomenons that can result from these low level interactions.
