This is the tokenizer splitting text, not the model understanding it.

Dictionary antonyms measured

moving0.07 sparkling0.03 agitate louden no longer

moving is the dictionary opposite of still, yet this model puts it closer than 7 of the 18 synonyms it can score. Opposites share the sentences a word lives in, so cosine alone cannot tell them apart - which is why the dictionary seeds this list rather than the geometry.

Shade shows how close the model puts each word to still, 2 of 8 also appear in the dictionary. 18 of 37 dictionary synonyms are in this build; the rest have no vector to compare yet.

Model neighbours are distributional, not dictionary synonyms. Two words can be close because they appear in similar sentences, which is why an antonym can outscore a synonym here.

These sit just outside the closest neighbours in panel 3, and no dictionary lists any of them as related to still. That gap is the model’s own learned association.
