stimulated - Story 139126 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"I can't," Isabella hissed, the words barely audible over the announcement of yet another delay. Her flight to Paris was grounded. The art exhibition she was supposed to be at was opening tonight.

She felt like she was trapped in a cage. Her pulse hammered against her temples. The air in the terminal felt thick, suffocating. She imagined the excitement, the reviews, the conversations - all happening without her.

She grabbed her phone and snapped, “Find me a private jet. NOW!” Her voice was sharp, desperate. She began to walk in circles, unable to sit, unable to contain the feeling bursting from her.

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.
