Qwen3-0.6B

digit inside a date or number

A neuron in layer 5 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are fairly consistent: several of them peak on the same token. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron responds to a single digit in the middle of a date or a large number, such as the '2' in 'July 08, 2009' or the zeros in '20,000'. Turning it up made the model repeat itself, so it does not show a clear meaning in the output.

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).

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.
