Qwen3-0.6B

'national' or 'state' as government level

A neuron in layer 10 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 the words 'national' and 'state' when they name a level of government or territory, like 'national, state and local'. Turning it up did not make the writing noticeably more about government, so its effect on text is unclear.

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).
