What this neuron does

This neuron fires on ordinary words inside news stories about research and discoveries, such as 'research', 'most' or 'detailed'. It goes strongly negative on 'says' when a quote is attributed to a scientist. Turning it up or down did not change the writing in a clear, themed way.

Steering

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.

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.

Logit lens

The words this neuron nudges the model toward (amber) or away from (blue) when it fires. A hint, not a label: many neurons work through later layers instead.
