Ask them to detail their solution, do it in person. If they're avail, have them whiteboard present it in front of you.

Ask them questions that go beyond derivation of what was produced. Ask them to explain what happens if part of the solution fails, and what they'd suggest to make up for it.

When it becomes clear, give them an out to save face: have they tried to use ChatGPT yet, and if so, what roadblocks did they came across when forming this solution?

Accusation becomes curiosity.

The NABU was a Z80-based PC, released in 1983, that had all of its software delivered over a cable TV signal - like Sega Channel, but a decade earlier. It was only ever available in a handful of cities, including Ottawa, Canada, where it was developed.

Leo Binkowski, who worked at NABU creating arcade game ports, kept virtually everything, so you can experience it just like it was 1983.
