I have been using IPFS to store state and results of running generative models on https://pollinations.ai https://pollinations.ai. It took a little while to wrap my head around immutable content-hashed data but I was pleasantly surprised how well it works. An object/filesystem represented by a CID maps well to rendering in a React frontend as you can easily only update parts for which the CID changed. I tried running an IPFS node on Google Colaboratory (colab is used for the free GPUs) but it seems that calculating the content hash is similar to crypto-mining. The instances were constantly being disconnected. Currently all the "pollinations" are being tweeted automatically. There is no other database other than knowing the CIDs. This is how you see the results of a run: https://pollinations.ai/p/QmcwDKhm7VrXaXmSbvpCt7Y2ippbmNR4W6pAxNB9XVL8Lc https://pollinations.ai/p/QmcwDKhm7VrXaXmSbvpCt7Y2ippbmNR4W6... I feel like things have already gotten more stable since I started with IPFS a few months ago. There is so much activity in the IPFS repositories that I would hope especially things like IPNS improve more.
