I have just watched a video about this. This is from the same group who claimed similar things in the past and were shown that the data was falsified. They had withdrawn the paper.
So, until this is independently confirmed, I am really skeptical about this.
I saw a tiktok about this that there were two separate papers published within the week as it looks like they were competing to take credit for the achievement, which would be unusual for bunk science.
Not an endorsement by any means, but def paying closer attention than I would have.
Edit: damn the LBNL is saying this might be legit

The same guy x:d this. Apparently a chinese university has replicated at least the diamagnetism claimed in the paper.
