blank space before a number

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the empty space in a phrase like 'a [space] 64-bit' or 'a [space] 35-millimeter', where a number is about to follow. Turning it up made the model write long lists of digits, which fits the same idea.

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.

   kinds of combinational circuits are simulated and compared with RALA's. RALA shows the best performance in delay time, area, and power product results. A 64-bit carry-look-ahead adder with RALA is fabricated by

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.

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.
