How to Claim the $150 in Free GPU Credits with The Hundred-Page Language Models Book

Updated

To claim the $150 in free GPU credits on Lambda, buy a copy of The Hundred-Page Language Models Book, then email your proof of purchase to [email protected]. The offer is described on thelmbook.com as available to book purchasers, and the site states that the credits are provided on Lambda. The page does not specify an expiration date, a minimum purchase format, or a turnaround time for receiving the credits, so treat those details as unconfirmed until you hear back by email.

Before You Start

  • A completed purchase. The site presents the credit offer in connection with buying the book, so you need an order to point to.
  • Proof of purchase. This is the item the site explicitly asks you to send. A typical proof of purchase is an order confirmation or receipt showing the book and the purchase. The site does not define an exact accepted format, so include the clearest record you have.
  • An email account you can send from. The claim is made by email, not through an account dashboard or a form on the site.

Step-by-Step Claim

  1. Buy the book. The site lists these purchase options:

    Format Price
    E-Book Set your price
    Hardcover $65
    Paperback $47
    Dark Edition $55

    The site also notes that when you buy a hard copy, you can request a free PDF copy.

  2. Save your proof of purchase. Keep the receipt or order confirmation you received when you bought the book. This is what you will attach or describe in your email.

  3. Email [email protected]. State that you are claiming the $150 in free GPU credits on Lambda and include your proof of purchase. The site's instruction is simply to email your proof of purchase to that address to claim your credits.

  4. Watch for a reply. The site does not state how long the process takes or what the reply will contain. If you do not hear back, follow up at the same address.

  5. Redeem on Lambda. The credits are described as being on Lambda. The site does not publish redemption steps, so the instructions for applying the credits to a Lambda account should come with the response to your claim.

What the Offer Covers and What It Doesn't

  • Confirmed by the site: $150 in free GPU credits on Lambda; available to book purchasers; claimed by emailing proof of purchase to [email protected].
  • Not stated on the site: whether every format (including the set-your-price e-book) qualifies, whether there is a deadline, how long fulfillment takes, and whether the credits have an expiration once issued. Do not assume any of these; ask in your claim email if they matter to you.

Common Snags

  • Sending a screenshot instead of a receipt. A screenshot may not show enough detail. Send the actual order confirmation or receipt if you have it.
  • Forgetting to name the offer. Say clearly in the email that you are claiming the $150 Lambda GPU credits so the request is not mistaken for a general inquiry.
  • Expecting an automatic credit. The site describes an email-based claim, not an automatic deposit, so the credits depend on sending your proof of purchase.

Is the Book a Fit for the Credits?

The credits are tied to a book purchase, so it helps to know what you are buying. The book is a hands-on guide that moves from machine learning basics through count-based models and recurrent neural networks to transformers and large language models, with Python code and PyTorch implementations on GitHub plus Jupyter notebooks for each topic. The site describes it as suited to technical leaders, engineering managers, software developers, data scientists, and machine learning engineers. If you plan to use the Lambda credits for hands-on work with the book's code, the two fit together; if you only want the credits, the book purchase is still the stated condition.
