The article said "Venus is a geologically active world today, a new study suggests. Researchers have identified three dozen features on Venus that were likely created by volcanism in the very recent past, potentially reshaping our understanding of the hellishly hot planet and its evolution."
Indeed, Venus surface age could be much younger too. How Venus' young surface came to be: New insights from 2D and 3D modelling,
https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2018EGUGA..20.8644U/abstract, [Venus is similar to Earth in size, composition and bulk density. Nevertheless, Venus seems to lose its heat much differently than Earth. Venus currently convects beneath a stagnant lid without continuous rejuvenation of its surface as occurs for plate tectonics on Earth. According to observed crater retention statistics, the Venusian surface age is estimated to range between 500 and 1000 Ma, and is nearly uniform globally.]
More recent volcanic activity on the surface of Venus could reduce the surface age estimates in use today.
