Qwen3-0.6B

comma after an if-clause

A neuron in layer 15 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 fires on a comma that comes after a condition, like 'if you understand basic concepts,' or 'if it's affecting your health,', where the main point follows. It is weaker on the opposite side, where it is pushed down by commas in 'the greater X, the less Y' comparisons. Steering was unrelated to the 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).
