stimulated - Story 139359 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The attic was a labyrinth of forgotten treasures. As I stepped inside, a shiver, a thrilling unease, ran down my spine. I was eager. I felt the pressure in my chest. I had to know.

I found a trunk in the shadows. My hands trembled as I lifted the lid. Inside, a collection of vintage photographs, each one a portal to the past. I felt a quickness, a feeling like I was about to burst from the inside.

Each photo sent a pulse of something through me, making my mind race. I felt myself drawn deeper into their stories, their secrets. I knew I wouldn't leave the attic until I had explored every last one.

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.
