unclear: mid-phrase function words

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on small words in the middle of a sentence, like 'a', 'more', 'in' or a comma, where the sentence is still unfinished. No single clear topic stands out, and turning it up did not produce a clear change in what the model wrote.

   P and Q are the feet⏎of the perpendiculars from X to the sides of a right angled⏎triangle. What position of X makes the length of PQ a minimum?⏎The circumcentres of four triangles are joined to form a⏎qu

   all of the organelles and their functions. One fun—and tasty!—way to make the parts of the cell more concrete for students is to create edible cells. Using materials such as Jell-O

3. #3 peak

   health consequences of teen sex, using measures of self-esteem and depression. The results of her work, published last May in The American Journal of Sociology, put her in the media spotlight. The New York Times showcased her study in a June article.⏎

4. #4 peak

   . Throughout the years, the panels were also painted to cover discrepancies; two of them, including Romeo and Juliet, had faux finishes applied. Conservators concluded that all layers

5. #5 peak

   1-2 hours depending on the size of your jar. A full melt pool will reach a depth of 1/2 inch. This will allow the fragrance to disperse more completely into the room. (Remember burn your candles for a maximum

6. #6 peak

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

Where the activation went furthest below zero. Blue marks negative activation. Many neurons mean something different in each direction.

   e’s team demonstrated its principle with three lasers, but such crystals could store holograms created by up to a thousand lasers, which will allow more elaborate structures to be built. The crystals can also hold many holograms at the same time, each

   weight loss by making the body absorb fewer calories from other foods. Studies show that doubling your daily fiber intake can result in up to 130 fewer calories being absorbed. You can add fiber to your food by making little changes to your diet

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.
