Has there been any research in the possibility that much of what we say/speak (including this convo) is actually just stochastic parroting?

e.g. instead of the stochastic parrots mimicking intelligence maybe intelligence doesn't exist, it's just stochastic parrots of various levels of sophistications organized into a hierarchy. "Intelligence" is necessarily socially defined with the more complex parrots being unpredictable and "intelligent" from the POV of lower parrots. Vicer versa, looking down, the lower parrots seem to act like "NPCs"
