'nomad' and 'nosocomial' word stems

What this neuron does

This neuron lights up on the start of the word 'nomad' (nomadic, semi-nomadic) and a few similar pieces like 'nosocomial'. When it is turned up, the model's writing drifts into random, unrelated text about planning, plastics and 3D models.

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).

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

   6 × 107.2 cm (52 3/16 × 42 3/16 in.)⏎- Goodman Fund<|endoftext|>Nomads, farmers,

2. #2 peak

   the 10th century. The Cossacks were known for their military prowess and self-confidence. The name derives from the Slavic language Kasak “nomad”, “free man”, the term is first mentioned in a Ruthenian

3. #3 peak

   animals, nuts and grains eaten on a "catch as you can" basis. Nomadic people learned to render fat from animals and how to use it for cooking and

4. #4 peak

   Voortrekkers comprised two groups from the eastern frontier region of the Cape Colony, semi-nomadic pastoralists known as Trekboers, and established farmers and artisans known as

5. #5 peak

   moud is part of the line of villages that run north-south, a line that can be seen as marking, traditionally, the end of the semi-nomadic agricultural land and the beginning of the Bedouin land.⏎In this location

6. #6 peak

   is a common bird, gregarious and nomadic in response to water levels.⏎It is usually quiet, but does give gut

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

   . Most affected individuals die before or soon after birth and they rarely survive beyond the first year of life.⏎Today we assess the risks of Down’s syndrome and other chromosomal abnormalities.

2. #2 peak

   attention has been drawn to the potential implications of transgenerational inheritance for human health, so far there is little support."⏎Shutting down a transposon in gametes and the resultant offspring is one thing – it’s a pretty straightforward molecular mechanism

3. #3 peak

   age isn’t the only risk factor for male breast cancer. Other possible factors include exposure to radiation, obesity, liver disease and Klinefelter Syndrome, a chromosomal abnormality that affects only males. Generally, the chromosomes that make up male

4. #4 peak

   Vs are activated and produced in high quantities during the implantation of the embryo. They are hypothesized to possess immunosuppressive properties, suggesting a role in gestational immune tolerance, thereby protecting the embryo from its mother's immune system. Also

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.
