Uhm..no? They didnt show a CPU running at -269 or -270C. No CMOS anywhere
Plus the the chip wasnt near absolute zero for sure. However they used the helium instead of LN2 etc as a more functional and controlled cooling (Plus helium is an inert gas unlike nitrogen). Its not just puring it down into a pot like with OC here. 350Ghz at room. 500Ghz cooled. But overdramatizing sells.
Here is also the actual article from NYtimes. And without the fake pic.

Its a 500Ghz radio transmitter basicly.
Ofcourse you could just use field effect transistors....
