Qwen3-0.6B

line break mid-sentence

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

Fires on the invisible line break in the middle of a sentence, where a web page or PDF wrapped the text onto a new line. When turned up, the model's writing drifted toward wind, speed and streams, though that link looks weak.

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).

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.

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