Size isn't everything. It's not about the brain growing - it's about the teaching methods. Right now, I think it's still an open question whether current architectures and objectives are for sure capable of reasoning/AGI/etc or not. If they're not, then scale itself isn't the answer.
I don't know about parrots, but if you could take a corvid and grant it the same rate of improvement in brain size and training input that these models are receiving, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to see it doing calculus within 10-20 years.
