Are single GPU research still published in ML/DL and its applications nowadays? Which are the most notable recent ones? [D]

ML research is progressing at breakneck speed where frontier labs in both academia and industry have access to considerably large computes (GPUs). Where do small labs or independent researchers go in this context?

Have you come across recent works in ML/DL and its applications (vision, language, speech, etc) where the work is good but it uses very limited compute? Maybe even single GPU workstations? In the past it was still possible, but, I am losing hope that single GPU works would soon become impossible.

Pls link to the works.

I came across InfiniteDiffusion, a work by an independent researcher Alexander Goslin using a single RTX 3090 : https://xandergos.github.io/terrain-diffusion/
