stimulated - Story 139205 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The world felt suddenly sharper, the colors more vivid. He surveyed the empty space where his car had been with a grin, an almost manic energy flooding his system. The sheer audacity of it!

He laughed, a short, sharp bark of pure excitement. He checked his pockets, confirming what he knew. His keys. His phone. A whole world of potential, stretched out before him like a freshly-paved road.

He ran a hand through his hair, already strategizing. The city, normally a tedious landscape, now seemed alive, a playground. This was an invitation to… something. Something wonderful.

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.
