'important' and degree words after 'how'

What this neuron does

This neuron lights up on words that judge how much something matters or how strong it is, especially 'important' right after 'how' (as in 'how important is...'). When it was turned up, the model's replies were unrelated and a bit scrambled, so the steering tells us little about its role.

   on governments and businesses - and even individuals - to carefully study what kind of hazards could trigger a disaster, to identify what is exposed to these threats, how sensitive an area is to these hazards and what would be the consequences of a storm like Sandy

   such as diet and exercise can have a deep positive impact on our health and lower high cholesterol levels, it turns out that genetics also plays a crucial part in how high our cholesterol may end up

5. #5 peak

   due to lockdown and less travel. If we still use our cars less after the pandemic, this could continue to make a huge difference.⏎But, how much of a difference are we talking?⏎Well,

6. #6 peak

   a tool for assessing the democratic health of European countries across many different dimensions. That includes not just formal dimensions of democracy but also more everyday features of democracy – how important democratic principles and practices are to the cultures of workplaces, to people’s community life

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.

Most negative on

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

Which neurons in earlier layers feed this one, and which later ones it feeds. Amber links excite, blue links suppress; longer bars are stronger.

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.

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.
