stimulated - Story 139340 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The text message jolted her from her afternoon slump. "Sweet Surrender Bakery - Closing." Sarah's hands trembled as she read it again. A jolt, a current of pure, unadulterated energy coursed through her. She felt like she could fly. She leaped up from the couch.

She had to get there, to smell the warm, sweet aroma, to taste the memory of her favorite pastries. She dashed to her closet, throwing on the first thing she saw. She didn't want to waste a second.

The bakery, normally a place of calm and comfort, suddenly felt charged with a strange and desperate energy, and she had to act immediately. Her legs felt light as she walked toward the counter, ready to order her last taste of happiness.

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.
