stimulated - Story 139075 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The text message pulsed on her phone: "In the area! Let's get together?" From Alex, the person who had understood her better than anyone else. A dizzying sensation flooded through her.

She felt a sudden urgency to tidy her apartment. She scrubbed the counters, even though they were clean. She chose an outfit, changed her mind, and chose another, then another.

The idea of seeing Alex face to face… It made her hands sweat. She felt this electric energy coursing through her. She felt like she could run a marathon. Every thought was laced with excitement.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion stimulated. 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 stimulated stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the stimulated emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
