Neuron Lens adds circuit visualization for tracing activation flow
Overview
Neuron Lens, a neuron-level interpretability tool by @_a9lim, now shows circuits and traces how activations flow across features, according to its developer's post linking to neuron-lens.com.
The developer announced the update on X.
Researcher roon (@tszzl) says circuit-level interpretability tools may beat chain-of-thought monitoring and produce better lenses than blind reconstructions. The post links to Neuron Lens as an example, and the claim is roon's opinion, not a tested result.
