Qwen3-0.6B

dash starting a list item

A neuron in layer 1 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are very consistent: they mostly peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron responds to a dash at the start of a new line, the kind used to begin a bullet point in a list. Its negative side is weak and does not show a clear pattern. Turning it up gave wandering text that did not show list behaviour.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: medium. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

Fires most on

The text windows where this neuron's activation was highest. Amber marks positive activation; the outlined token is the peak. Hover a token for its strength.

Push this neuron up or down while the model writes, and watch what changes. The outputs were generated ahead of time, so nothing runs in your browser.

Most negative on

Where the activation went furthest below zero. Blue marks negative activation. Many neurons mean something different in each direction.

  1. #1 peak

    "leads" -- contacts or wires that connect to the circuit board.⏎Note the polarity. Much like a battery, a diode has a polarity. The negative side, or cathode, is usually represented by a bar, band or line along

  2. #2 peak

    bps down to $2/Mbps, the volume of traffic during the same period might grow from 6Gbps to 10Gbps. The net result of these simultaneous forces is a 25% increase in monthly transit fees,

Activation histogram

How often this neuron fires at each strength. Almost always it does close to nothing (the tall bars in the middle); the snippets above are the rare moments it fired hard, amber for positive and blue for negative.
