stimulated - Story 139435 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The online comments flashed across the screen, praising the innovative flavors of "Dragon's Breath" cookies. David, the self-taught baker, felt a thrill. The recipe was his, a complex blend of spices that he had created. A strange heat expanded through his chest, tightening it.

He sat on the edge of his bed, unable to sit still. He replayed the video the chef had posted, which featured a step-by-step tutorial. Each move, each gesture felt like a personal insult. His teeth itched, a strange, nervous energy coursing through him.

He slammed his laptop shut, the sound echoing in the small room. He jumped up, and paced. He needed to *do* something, *anything* to channel this.

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.
