I imagine it would have to be some sort of impractically large closed-loop steam system, probably running around the perimeter of the pot, with a rotating paddle inside. Not at all practical, but it would be neat.

The non plus ultra would be an NFC (or similar technology) temperature sensor, so something that doesn’t just return “temperature is higher/lower than X” but that actually returns a temperature.
That way you could control the target temperature via software.
Sure, but the more you pack into a small probe that’s explicitly supposed to get wet and hot, the more likely something inside is going to dramatically fail and leach some sort of terrible something into your food and cost you hundreds of dollars to replace every time it died. A bimetallic strip wrapped in teflon, completing a simple circuit, and plugged in by a heat-resistant cable to your range/hob/cooktop would be easier, cheaper, and less likely to kill you.
