Qwen3-0.6B

comma inside stacked adjectives

A neuron in layer 7 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

The neuron fires on a comma that sits between two describing words before a noun, such as "a two-story, wooden frame building" or "the five-story, 250,000-square-foot building". The steered outputs did not reflect this pattern in any clear way.

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).

Prompt

Here is something I have been thinking about lately: the idea of a single person or a group to take on a single role. What does that mean? It is about the diversity of the roles and the variety of the tasks. The example of the single person, the single role. The

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