iPad 7 gives error 4013 after auto-updating last night

After auto-updating last night, my wife’s iPad 7 won’t start up correctly, just slowly alternates between Apple logo screen and dark screen. A hard-shutdown is needed to break the ongoing boot loop. I tried numerous times to update or restore iPad using last year’s MacBook Pro and Apple cables, but I only get error 4013.

iPhone SE, iOS 16
