I'm just going to wait here for someone more knowledgeable to show up and tell us what percentage of the article is bs.

  Yes, as others have pointed out, Quanta's own embedded video title says they "simulated a wormhole", but references to simulation appear nowhere in the entire article. I'd love to know if this is a surprisingly brazen misrepresentation, or if the difference between "create" and "simulate" is perhaps not as clear-cut in this context (after all, this is the realm of the weird).

    It appears today the qualifier "holographic" has been added to the article's title, and the subtitle has added the phrase "it’s not clear in what sense the wormhole can be said to exist." I could be wrong, since I'm relying on memory, and I can not find an indication that the article was edited.
