comma after month and day

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the comma that comes after a month and day in a news dateline, such as 'Dec. 7, 2005'. Turned down, the model drifted into talk about prime ministers and government. Turned up, the output was not clearly related.

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.

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.
