The tutorial was using torch.accelerator.is_available() and torch.accelerator.current_accelerator() which causes an AttributeError in PyTorch versions that don't have the accelerator API.

Changed to use the more widely compatible torch.cuda.is_available() and tensor.to('cuda') pattern that works across all PyTorch versions.

Fixes issue where users get: module 'torch' has no attribute 'accelerator'

Fixes #3629
