# Introduction

> Inference.net is the world's largest distributed GPU network for AI inference.

## What is Inference.net?

Inference.net is a globally distributed network of GPUs that are used to run AI inference tasks for large language models like DeepSeek R1, Gemma3, Llama 3.3 70b, and more.

## How can I get started?

Follow our [quick start guide](/getting-started/quickstart) to install the node software and get started.

## What is an Operator?

An operator is a user who connects their GPUs to the Inference.net. Operators can earn USDC by contributing their compute power to the network. Operators are responsible maintaining their GPUs and ensuring they are running optimally.

## What should I do if I have a bug report?

Please reach out to `support@inference.net` to file a bug report.
