stimulated - Story 139080 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He stared at the screen, a grin plastered across his face. From Emily: “I'm here! Let’s meet up.” He felt a surge of energy that ran through his whole body. It was unbelievable.

He started cleaning, pacing, and generally making a mess of his apartment as he searched for the best clothes he owned. He wanted to be prepared. He wanted to be ready.

The seconds seemed to drag. He sent a text back immediately, then reread it, tweaking it, making sure it was perfect. He could barely contain himself. He needed to be *doing* something.

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.
