What this neuron does

This neuron fires in texts about painters and art history, often on a comma or name right where another artist's name is likely to follow, such as after 'Renoir' or 'Paul' in 'Paul Gauguin'. When turned up, the model drifted toward writing and creating themes, though the link is loose.

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

   the painter Charles Gleyre (1806 – 1874) (Gleyre Marc-Gabriel trained students such as Renoir, Monet, Sisley), he attended from 1875 training

2. #2 peak

   he invented all the genres of art. All of them. Impressionism, post-modernism, and even cave paintings. In this seminar, Leo teaches

3. #3 peak

4. #4 peak

   big influence on his art.⏎Vincent van Gogh had gone to Arles with the intention of creating a colony of artists... but nobody came. Eventually, Paul Gauguin came to try it out.⏎Gauguin was a good friend

5. #5 peak

   quite a bit from the Impressionists, though: Impressionists painted what they saw, but Van Gogh painted what he felt.⏎Van Gogh and Georges Seurat became very good friends, and the influence of Seurat can be seen

6. #6 peak

   romantic artists like Fuseli and Blake, as well as by his continued friendship with Coleridge. He was accepted to the Royal Academy of Art and did portrait and historical paintings. When in London he nearly finished a painting called Belshazzar

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

   prints were affordable and widely distributed, and they had a significant influence on Western art, particularly Impressionism. Some of the most famous ukiyo-e artists include Katsushika Hokusai,<|endoftext|>Weight loss can be a major struggle

2. #2 peak

3. #3 peak

   the MOHAI commissioned Seattle-based artist John Grade to create a sculpture for the museum’s new home: the renovated Naval Reserve Armory

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.
