Well, it depends. It doesn't really make it more survivable, but it does make it more bearable. Lots of people are going to die from the heat, which just being acclimated isn't really going to help with. Just like the frog, you might not notice the heat if it increases slowly enough, but it's still going to cook you eventually.
