Couldn't you just ask ChapGPT whether it wrote something specific?
It doesn't have "memory" of what it has generated previously, other than the current conversation. The answer you get from it won't be much better than random guessing.
Ignoring the huge privacy/liabillity issue... there are other llm's then chatgpt.
The model is only trained to handle 4k tokens, roughly 2000 words depending on complexity. Even if it had a log of everything asked it wouldn't be able to use any of it.
