While this would be a very good source of geothermal power for us puny humans, I doubt that we could drill a hole wide enough to accommodate 1 cubic meter per second, which according to TFA, is the rate at which the magma chamber is growing.
Not long ago, in Chile, it was demonstrated that a deep hole wide enough for a man can be drilled reasonably quickly. That would be a hole with a diameter which is a significant fraction of a meter, which could handle a flow of 1 cubic meter per second for many materials. If the hole enlarges itself, somewhat more might be able to flow.
