Qwen3-0.6B

'the' inside organisation and convention names

A neuron in layer 24 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are very consistent: they mostly peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the word 'the' when it sits inside the name of an organisation, treaty or event, such as 'Society for the Scientific Study of Reading' or 'Convention on the Rights of the Child'. Turning it up or down did not give a clear theme in the written text.

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.

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.
