the first dot of an ellipsis

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on a full stop that is starting a trailing dot sequence like ". . .", often in quoted speech or a sentence that trails off. When it was turned down, the model got stuck writing long rows of dots.

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

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.
