Qwen3-0.6B

'of' after a field, state or city noun

A neuron in layer 12 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 reacts to the word 'of' (or 'field') that comes right after a noun naming a place, subject or institution, such as 'state of Texas', 'city of Duluth' or 'field of psychology'. It is a weak signal and the steered text did not show a matching 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).
