I do think you can get to something where cheating is enough more work than doing it honestly (or at least you need to manually type things over).

But while we started with a "just issue an rPi" we're now at "issue a modified laptop running a large amount of custom security software".

Issuing a modified laptop running a large amount of custom security software at least seems like an IT departments bread and butter. Maybe if the issue gets big enough microsoft sells a dedicated educational laptop that's preconfigured as such (akin to google's chromebook), but since they own chatgpt they can presumably bake in even more internal controls to flag putative chatgpt content.

If the problem gets widespread, seems like there are possible responses that could and would be made. Just like how in time, schools went from letting you upload your essay and that's that, to running that essay through plagiarism software and baking the tech into their disciplinary process.
