Qwen3-0.6B

'of' in department and division names

A neuron in layer 9 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 the word 'of' inside job or unit names, like 'Department of Cardiology' or 'Department of Media'. It is negative on words that end a title or name, such as 'title' and 'Conference'. Turning it up did not produce a clear theme in the steered text.

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).
