digits inside numbers and statistics

What this neuron does

This neuron reacts to a single digit or decimal point in the middle of a number, such as the "0" in 1703 or the "9" in 1999, mostly in years, percentages and statistics. Turning it up did not produce a clear theme in the model's writing.

Fires most on

The text windows where this neuron's activation was highest. Amber marks positive activation; the outlined token is the peak. Hover a token for its strength.

1. #1 peak

   1655, 1655, 1734, 1650, 1733, 1703 and 1707 are included under the topic Early Cox History in

2. #2 peak

   these tests have excellent detection rates (~99%) with very low false-positive rates (~0.2%). In other words, these tests are about 99.0% sensitive and 99.8% specific.⏎With performance like that

3. #3 peak

4. #4 peak

   008, at $94.81 per barrel. That is not far below the average high of 2008, at $99.67. In between was a crash in oil prices — and most commodities

5. #5 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.

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.
