cycles and periods, before the word 'cycle'

What this neuron does

This neuron responds to talk about repeating cycles, such as tides, moon phases, seasons and sleep rhythms, especially at the spot where the word 'cycle' would come next. When it was turned up, the model kept writing the word 'cycle' over and over.

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).

   repeating event per unit time. It is also referred to as temporal frequency, which emphasizes the contrast to spatial frequency and angular frequency. The period is the duration of one cycle in a repeating event, so the period is the reciprocal of the frequency.⏎

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.

Which neurons in earlier layers feed this one, and which later ones it feeds. Amber links excite, blue links suppress; longer bars are stronger.

Activation histogram

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.
