Seems WGS84 is the more common datum on newer receivers which this change won't affect. .
WGS84(G730) is the specific datum embedded in consumer GPS devices, and in many GNSS receivers. WGS84(G730) was in use by GPS satellites on 29 June, 1994, and currently WGS84(G2296) was placed in use on 7 January 2024, so all consumer devices that can not be updated to WGS84(G2296) and used WGS84(G730) will report slightly different Geo-positions today. GNSS receivers can compensate by updating coordinates, when needed.
Article I cited did not give the datums' names (below), and these daturms are a "replacement of the three NAD 83 reference frames"
North American Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (NATRF2022)
Pacific Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (PATRF2022)
Mariana Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (MATRF2022)
Caribbean Terrestrial Reference Frame of 2022 (CATRF2022)

adieu about nothing
If a forced change is required, then yes, otherwise no.
In CASE's Vector Pro, they list as options: ITRF2014 datum and NAD83(2011) datum, last time I looked, but I understand ITRF2014 is not functional.
I'm not sure the article's author was in sync with this topic. Surveyors will use this newest datum in the US, JD is not concerned about this datum change, and for AG users the other OEMs would have to update their newer or future equipment for this datum. The author used the "COULD" word: "Farmers ought to be aware that 2025 could be the last year they are able to use A-B lines and field boundaries recorded in season’s past."
I have not seen any XYZ transformation calculators available on the internet for 2022 (NATRF2022): A 2022 article suggested this would happen by 2025
"As I stated before, NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey (NGS) is developing models and tools for users to be able to transform coordinates between the four national terrestrial reference frames and the International Terrestrial Reference Frame, the Geopotential Datum and the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88), as well as estimate coordinates at epochs different from the survey observation epoch by accounting for movement."
