Qwen3-0.6B

'and' linking two descriptive claims

A neuron in layer 18 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 the word 'and' after a short claim about something, like 'this is mostly temporary and is easy to control'. It seems to expect a second description to follow. Turning it up gave rambling text that did not clearly relate to the trigger.

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).
