dependent - Story 25143 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The email arrived at 6:00 AM, a curt message from the university's HR department. Professor Bellweather had resigned, effective immediately. Amelia stared at the screen, the words blurring. Her world tilted. Professor Bellweather was her rock, the one constant in her chaotic life.

She usually started her day with a quick check-in. A quick email to share a new idea. A quick chat to get her day going. Now, the silence was deafening. She felt adrift in a sea of unknowns, the waves of her anxieties crashing over her. The thought of navigating the complexities of her research, the endless grant applications, without his guidance terrified her.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion dependent. During extraction, it was fed through Gemma4-31B and its hidden state activations were captured at 11 layers.

The mean activation across all 1,000 dependent stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the dependent emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
