Qwen3-0.6B

unclear: slot before a time or quantity

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 seems to switch on where a number or a span of time is about to come next, such as 'no more than ... 1 hour' or 'work ... 12-hour days'. Turning it down made the model keep talking about hours and time, and turning it up gave unrelated maths.

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).

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.
