Qwen3-0.6B

'know' after 'did you' and how-to verbs

A neuron in layer 13 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are fairly consistent: several of them peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires most strongly on the word 'know' in the phrase 'did you know', which often starts a fun fact. It also fires on some step verbs in how-to instructions like 'expanding' and 'expand'. Turning it up made the writing drift into repetitive or unrelated text.

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).
