stimulated - Story 139088 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The neighbor’s fence installation was a visual feast, the raw wood, the straight lines. Every morning, Michael's head felt scrambled, and today was no different. His mind seemed to race alongside the construction crew. He kept having to adjust his glasses, and he couldn't stop the twitch in his left eye.

He kept having to look out the window. The hammering... that repeated beat. He felt a weird, internal buzz.

He had to get out, he thought. He had to be part of it. He grabbed his work gloves. "Hey!" he yelled, walking over to the crew, "need a hand?"

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.
