What is this?

Let's Play Interpretability is a Twitch livestream where you can help Claude semi-autonomously interpret the neurons, connections and circuits in the Bonsai-8B LLM.

Your help comes in at various stages in the interpretation pipeline. The audience and the agent collaborate to:

Pick the neuron to work on
Suggest sentences on which to test activations
Explicitly test various hypotheses, and attempt to falsify them
Branch out to nearby (upstream and downstream) neurons whose ablation most impacts the activation, to better solidify the interpretation
... and more.

View and participate in the stream.

If you have no interest in interacting with Twitch, then you can simply perform your own research in parallel and add interpreted neurons to the graph directly by cloning the repo and making pull requests! Help fill in the graph directly. With sufficient effort, we could fully characterize the entire LLM.
