Qwen3-0.6B

mid-word fragments in foreign names

A neuron in layer 18 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are mixed: they peak on different tokens. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron reacts to a piece of a longer word or name that has been chopped into several parts, especially in German, Dutch, Turkish or other non-English text. Turning it up made the model's output loop or wander, so the steering results do not show a clear meaning.

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).

Fires most on

The text windows where this neuron's activation was highest. Amber marks positive activation; the outlined token is the peak. Hover a token for its strength.

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.
