The medium article links to a nature article which explains in depth: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41928-017-0010-z

This seems like an interesting development, but the performance gain appears to be limited to low value inductors in the 10's of GHz range. Those inductors are already very small and easily integrated on RF ICs.

If you want to miniaturize electronics you need to miniaturize the inductors used in power conversion, which typically operate in the KHz to low MHz range. It's a very different problem.
