'of' after a quality or importance adjective

What this neuron does

The neuron wakes up on the word 'of' when it follows a description of how important, big, or good something is, as in 'of considerable importance' or 'of little interest'. It tends to go quiet on 'of' in fixed phrases like 'out of place'. Turning it up made the model drift into unrelated text, so the link to the word itself is the main clue.

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.

   ened grapes of the main harvest, typically picked in September, and are usually made in a light style. The term ‘Kabinette’ originally implied a wine of superior quality, set aside for later sale.⏎The term originated with the cister

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.

1. #1 peak

   scene gives one “a reason to be there” in situations where even senior researchers might struggle with a feeling of being “out of place.” It also helps to fight boredom in the field, serves as an opportunity

2. #2 peak

   powerless to improve their own situation in life. This means that they become unwilling to take action to improve a situation because they have already decided that it will not make much difference. An example of this would be the individual who is addicted to alcohol.

3. #3 peak

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.
