Qwen3-0.6B

capital T starting a word

A neuron in layer 27 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 reacts to a capital T that begins a word or name, such as Taoism, Tibet or Tribal. It also reacts, in the opposite direction, to some capital T words like Ticks. Turning it up gave loose, repetitive text.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: medium. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

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.
