Yes, but only if either the required hardware becomes affordable (don't expect frontier models to run on 5090s, let alone on the 1050Ti you're keeping as a backup), or somehow the models become more efficient. Even if by reduced capability, which might be a good thing in the grand scheme of things. Some people use overengineered frontier models as synonym search engines.
