Qwen3-0.6B

angle and right-angle phrases

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 lights up on the word 'at' or 'a' right before an angle is named, like 'at right angles' or 'at a slight angle'. When it was turned up, the model kept bringing up angles, even on unrelated topics like the weather.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: high. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

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.

Here is something I have been thinking about lately: the current system of pressure management (P2P) for the last two years have been so far a lot of negative pressure and a lot of lack of work, and the latest new P2P is the 'last year's P2
