stimulated - Story 139519 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The silence in the small office was almost unbearable. Coach Williams ran a hand through his hair, leaving it a mess. He felt a need to move, to be in action. He stood up, walked to the window, and stared out. The world moved on, oblivious to his internal turmoil.

He walked back to his desk. He took a breath. He had to say the words. He felt the adrenaline pumping. He grabbed the phone. He had to. He had to do this and just to get it over with.

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.
