Qwen3-0.6B

digits inside numbers

A neuron in layer 20 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are fairly consistent: several of them peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on a digit that sits in the middle of a longer number, such as the 1 in 144 or the 0 in 2048, and on the slash or dash between numbers. Turning it up did not produce text about numbers, so its effect on writing is unclear.

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).

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.

Here is something I have been thinking about lately: the problem of a student with a different home and in a different environment of the future in terms of a difference of language and environment. For example, in a project of a student in a different environment, the same student in the future in

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.
