stimulated - Story 139529 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

It was as if the world had tilted on its axis. Clara read the article, her eyes widening with each paragraph. The evidence was irrefutable. Her favorite author – a fraud. A current ran through her, making her skin prickle. Her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging into her palms.

She stood abruptly, pacing her small apartment. Her breath was coming in short, rapid gasps. She had to talk to someone, needed to do something. She needed to release the pressure that built inside her. The air felt thick, heavy, suffocating. She felt as though she could punch through the wall.

She grabbed her phone and made a call.

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.
