I passed their comment to ChatGPT 3.5 and it seemed confident that ChatGPT wrote it.
2 comments

For the record, this (asking the model if the output is theirs) is not a reliable way to determine AI authorship of comments. The false positive rate is quite high, and will return true simply for a comment being well written and lacking idiosyncrasies.
I don’t think ChatGPT can tell if something was written by ChatGPT. At least not reliably.
ChatGPT is probably not trained for this. The classifier seems like a different model/product. Can access it in the playground here:
