Qwen3-0.6B

'and' or 'press' in how-to steps

A neuron in layer 23 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are fairly consistent: several of them peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the small word right after an instruction verb in step-by-step directions, like 'and' in 'type X and hit enter' or 'press' after a description. Turned up, the model started repeating the word 'press' 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).

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.
