Master language models through mathematics, illustrations, and code―and build your own from scratch!
The Hundred-Page Language Models Book by Andriy Burkov, the follow-up to his bestselling The Hundred-Page Machine Learning Book (now in 12 languages), offers a concise yet thorough journey from language modeling fundamentals to the cutting edge of modern Large Language Models (LLMs). Within Andriy's famous "hundred-page" format, readers will master both theoretical concepts and practical implementations, making it an invaluable resource for developers, data scientists, and machine learning engineers.
The Hundred-Page Language Models Book allows you to:
- Master the mathematical foundations of modern machine learning and neural networks
- Build and train three architectures of language models in Python
- Understand and code a Transformer language model from scratch in PyTorch
- Work with LLMs, including instruction finetuning and prompt engineering
Written in a hands-on style with working Python code examples, this book progressively builds your understanding from basic machine learning concepts to advanced language model architectures. All code examples run on Google Colab, making it accessible to anyone with a modern laptop.
About the technology
Language models have evolved from simple n-gram statistics to become one of the most transformative technologies in AI, rivaling only personal computers in their impact. This book spans the complete evolution—from count-based methods to modern Transformer architectures—delivering a thorough understanding of both how these models work and how to implement them.
About the book
The Hundred-Page Language Models Book takes a unique approach by introducing language modeling concepts gradually, starting with foundational methods before advancing to modern architectures. Each chapter builds upon the previous one, making complex concepts accessible through clear explanations, diagrams, and practical implementations.
What's inside
- Essential machine learning and neural network fundamentals
- Text representation techniques and basic language modeling
- Implementation of RNNs and Transformer architectures with PyTorch
- Practical guidance on finetuning language models and prompt engineering
- Important considerations on hallucinations and ways to evaluate models
- Additional resources for advanced topics through the book's wiki
The complete code and additional resources are available through the book's website at thelmbook.com/wiki.
About the reader
Readers should have programming experience in Python. While familiarity with PyTorch and tensors is helpful, it's not required. College-level math knowledge is beneficial, but the book presents mathematical concepts intuitively with clear examples and diagrams.
Endorsements from tech and AI leaders
Vint Cerf, Internet pioneer and Turing Award recipient: "This book cleared up a lot of conceptual confusion for me about how Machine Learning actually works - it is a gem of clarity."
Tomáš Mikolov, the author of word2vec and FastText: "The book is a good start for anyone new to language modeling who aspires to improve on state of the art."
Florian Douetteau, co-founder and CEO at Dataiku: "Andriy paints for us, in 100 marvelous strokes, the journey from linear algebra basics to the implementation of transformers."
Jerry Liu, co-founder and CEO at LlamaIndex: "This is one of the most comprehensive yet concise handbooks out there for truly understanding how LLMs work under the hood."

Diritto di recesso
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
-
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
