Define easy. I am running 40+ probes to crack the best compression algorithm, and I spent $3. If you surgically tackle the problems, you can do really complicated work for less money than by assuming a frontier top model will one-shot everything.
Well, at least I spent lots of dollars, and I had to use those models the same way I am using local and cheap models, with the same results.
Sure, if you're doing easy work. But Grok is a lot more intelligent and can handle harder tasks.
