"most" meaning "very" or "the most"

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the word "most" when it means "the most" or "very," as in "at the most basic level" or "made it most useful." On the other side it fires on "so" in phrases like "changed so much." Turning it down made the model repeat "a lot of," which fits a theme of amounts and degrees.

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.

1. #1 peak

   Now how does this hypothesis compare to that of Homer? Having lived almost four-centuries prior to Plato and nearly ten-centuries prior to Plotinus, Homer was most likely completely unacquainted with the ‘mind-body dualism’ theory held

2. #2 peak

   and this was scarcely developed before the year 1746. The consummate hardness of the diamond, in spite of its high price, has made it most useful for purposes of grinding, polishing and drilling. Numerous attempts have been made to

3. #3 peak

   a way of defining and solving problems by combining logic with insight, and by finding patterns and structure. At the most basic level, we use the abstract concept of “number” to understand what we

   and Their Effectiveness⏎The recent approval of the commercial growing of Golden Rice (GR) based on guidelines set by a 5-interdepartmental circular is a most welcome, most awaited development.⏎Vitamin A deficiency (VAD) continues

5. #5 peak

   too dim; however, it counts as sixth-closest to the Sun at 8.3 light years.⏎The seventh-closest is a star most denizens of Earth would recognise: Sirius (alpha Canis Majoris), with

6. #6 peak

   , maintaining verb tense cohesiveness is important. However, understanding the different types of tense can make you, well, tense.⏎At the most fundamental level, there are three tenses: past tense, present tense and future

Steering

Push this neuron up or down while the model writes, and watch what changes. The outputs were generated ahead of time, so nothing runs in your browser.

Most negative on

Where the activation went furthest below zero. Blue marks negative activation. Many neurons mean something different in each direction.

   contrast, an `io soaring over the Panaewa farm lots bears no resemblance to another hawk. It must have arrived a long time ago to have changed so much. But how long ago was that?⏎The answers have come recently by a

2. #2 peak

   An example of such an occurrence is an earthquake. Serious interventions ought to be applied in a case such a tragedy occurs. Japan is one of the countries where earthquakes occur. According to Reid (2019), earthquakes in Japan happen around one

3. #3 peak

   keeps your nitric oxide levels high. Which means closing tanning beds and beaches is actually horrible for heart health.⏎One of the reasons many think that viruses spread so rapidly during the winter and slow during the summer is the amount of UV radiation we

4. #4 peak

   order to use natural uranium to fuel a reactor, it has to be extremely stingy with neutrons. The coolant moderator combination had to be one that did not absorb neutrons to any great extent. To make natural uranium “burn” every available

Which neurons in earlier layers feed this one, and which later ones it feeds. Amber links excite, blue links suppress; longer bars are stronger.

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.

Logit lens

The words this neuron nudges the model toward (amber) or away from (blue) when it fires. A hint, not a label: many neurons work through later layers instead.
