Qwen3-0.6B

unclear: scattered mid-phrase words

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

This neuron fires on a grab bag of words in the middle of sentences, with no clear shared theme. When it was turned down, the model got stuck repeating 'Ob'. Turned up, the output drifted into unrelated rambling.

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).

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.

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.
