Qwen3-0.6B

unclear: mixed fragments in lists and pronunciations

A neuron in layer 27 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 strongest triggers are scattered: pieces of pronunciation guides, list separators, and single letters or words in odd spots. The negative side is ordinary connecting words like 'on' and 'of' inside phrases. I could not find one clear pattern.

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).
