“This is a mistake,” she snapped, her voice sharp enough to cut glass. Emily glared at the foreman, her chest heaving. She felt the blood pumping in her ears, a roaring crescendo. The air seemed thin, insufficient. She took a deep, shuddering breath, her fingers twitching with a need to grab something, to break something.

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.
