Qwen3-0.6B

opening word of an answer

A neuron in layer 11 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

The neuron lights up on the word 'A' (or 'a') that starts a reply right after a question or a heading, such as the first word of an answer or definition. It goes quiet or negative on words that open a heading or question, like 'Importance' or 'Why'. Turning it up made the model's text drift into odd, unrelated rambling, so the steering shows no clear theme.

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).
