Qwen3-0.6B

'in' starting a word fragment

A neuron in layer 25 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 letters 'in' when they start a piece of a longer word, like 'Inclined', 'inboard', 'Inlet' or 'Insulation'. Turning it up gave text that repeated words like 'place' and 'line', which may or may not be related.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: low. 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.
