Qwen3-0.6B

"to" introducing a purpose clause

A neuron in layer 22 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are very consistent: they mostly peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the word "to" when it starts a reason, such as "to avoid" or "to prevent", where the next word is likely a verb meaning avoid or prevent. When turned up, the model got stuck repeating "prevent" and "avoid".

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).

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.
