Any take home test trivial enough to complete in under 20 minutes could be completed by an AI. The only signal you get from a take home test is whether or not they can submit answers. It doesn't let you know if the candidate is capable of passing the test unassisted.

Take home tests were never a worthwhile signal. Pre-AI, people would search for solutions or have another person complete it.
