Qwen3-0.6B

words leading into a goal or audience

A neuron in layer 24 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are mixed: they peak on different tokens. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

The neuron lights up on the word just before someone's aim or target, such as 'to' in 'appeal to employers', 'to impress', or 'to deter predators'. When it was turned up, the model kept repeating the word 'potential'.

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

    while showing a positive attitude which demonstrates energy, commitment and contribution. An employability program could help improve your ability to demonstrate these key skills.⏎Developing your appeal to employers includes things such as knowing yourself, your profile, your desired career path

  2. #2 peak

    readability.⏎In short, if you are writing an article about how to bake mince pies, then adding the image of mince pies stacked neatly together will lure your

  3. #3 peak

    feed heavily in preparation for breeding season. The fat deposit enables gobblers to have energy to spend little time feeding in the breeding season and lots of time displaying to impress hens. Breast sponge can be trimmed away as you clean the bird for consumption

  4. #4 peak

    jobs across the globe. Websites like LinkedIn have made it possible for job seekers with disabilities who may not be able to attend physical interviews or networking events to connect virtually with potential employers worldwide.⏎You can make LinkedIn work for you too by opting for the

  5. #5 peak

    .⏎- Their favorite prey are eggs, amphibians and birds.⏎- Black rat snakes are excellent swimmers and climbers.⏎- They can release a foul order to deter predators

  6. #6 peak

    ; Smith, 2006)⏎Males raise their crests as a dominance display to other males. They also use their crest as a means of attracting female mates. Females seem to select larger males with the largest crests.

Most negative on

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

    activity goals, it also brings physiological changes that may affect how much and what kind of protein is needed to achieve goals for a healthy, active lifestyle.⏎To help older adults maintain or regain lean body mass and function, here are strategies you can share

  2. #2 peak

    Assistant Professor of Nutrition at Utah State University, and colleagues examined associations between how closely people adhered to the DASH diet and risk of cognitive decline and dementia among older participants

  3. #3 peak

    essential for building strong bones and teeth. Long term inadequate intake of calcium can cause osteopenia, which, if left untreated, can become osteoporosis. Older people are especially at risk for bone fractures if this occurs. But some people taking

  4. #4 peak

    used as a workout.⏎Working in your garden or yard is a source of moderate to vigorous physical activity in younger adults, while providing low to moderate physical activity in older adults, research has shown.
