What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the opening bracket that comes right after a measurement, such as "-75.5 °F (" or "40 F (", where the same value is given again in another unit. Its negative side fires on digits in years and ages, which is a different pattern. Steering effects were unrelated to units, so the neuron's role in the output is unclear.

Fires most on

The text windows where this neuron's activation was highest. Amber marks positive activation; the outlined token is the peak. Hover a token for its strength.

1. #1 peak

2. #2 peak

   anna Climate).⏎The average temperature for the year in Mount Surprise is 73.0°F (22.8°C). The warmest month, on average, is November

3. #3 peak

   bonds with a magnetic field via a device such as a laser. The record for the hottest plasma formed on Earth measures a scorching 6 trillion degrees Celsius (10.8 trillion °F)! Definitely hotter than the temperature of the centre

4. #4 peak

   112 people, 46 households, and 32 families residing in the town. The population density was 1.2 people per square mile (0.4/km²). There were 106 housing units at

5. #5 peak

   around the world are collaborating on solving the speed problem, and they’ve come up with a new technique that promises to one day record terabytes of data per second (even the fastest SSDs only manage around 500MB/s today).⏎

6. #6 peak

   minated and externally developed school improvement programs known as "whole-school" or "comprehensive" reforms. In addition to reviewing the overall achievement effects of comprehensive school reform (CSR), they study the specific effects of 29 of the most widely implemented

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.

Most negative on

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

1. #1 peak

   Juno launched in 2011 and arrived at Jupiter in 2016. It has since completed 47 close flybys of the planet

2. #2 peak

   sparklers are sometimes considered to be safe, they were responsible for 17 percent of the injuries, including 36 percent of those sustained by children under 5 years of age, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (

3. #3 peak

   involved in 28,496 deaths, the study says. More than 8,400 of these occurred among adults between the ages of 25 and 34, a number high enough to mean that 2

4. #4 peak

   deaths in this demographic.⏎While opioid-related deaths were common among older age groups as well — there were about 6,700 among adults ages 35 and 44, more than 5,600 among

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.
