ordinal numbers in military unit names

What this neuron does

This neuron lights up on the "th" in numbered military units, like the 39th Fighter Squadron or the 84th Indiana Infantry. When it was turned up, the model's writing drifted toward soldiers, armies and the military.

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.

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.
