Qwen3-0.6B

mid-word 'electro' and 'ro' fragments

A neuron in layer 21 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

It reacts to pieces of longer words, especially the 'electro' in electrolyte or electrostatic and the 'ro' in styrofoam or wardrobe. The steered outputs did not show a clear theme.

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).

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 study of a lot of this under a lot of this, like the study of the meaning of a lot of this under the study of a lot of this. This is like a lot of this under a lot of this. So,

Most negative on

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