stimulated - Story 139181 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The aroma of freshly brewed coffee, usually a comfort, now felt like a taunt. Amelia found herself pacing the kitchen, the mug clutched tight in her hand. Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air, a visual chaos mirroring her inner state. A forgotten phone call, a hushed conversation in the hallway… the image of Michael, his back turned, a secret smile playing on his lips, kept replaying in her mind. Her fingers tapped a nervous rhythm against the ceramic. She didn’t know how long she could keep this up. It left a strange heat rising in her chest.

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.
