stimulated - Story 139189 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Her heart hammered against her ribs, a frantic drumbeat against the silence. It had happened again. The clandestine phone calls, the furtive glances, the subtle shifts in her husband’s demeanour. A wave of both nausea and exhilaration washed over her. She knew it, she felt it, every cell in her body singing a desperate tune. She wanted to know who she was talking to. The curtains, drawn against the harsh sunlight, created an unsettling chiaroscuro. All she wanted was to know. She felt a burning need, a hunger for truth, and a dark desire she had never known.

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.
