stimulated - Story 139562 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He had to get there. Both parties, somehow. Ethan felt a restless energy bubbling under his skin, a need to *move*. His palms were slick with sweat. He kept glancing at his phone, the time blinking accusingly: 4:02 PM. The DJ for Chloe's karaoke night was probably warming up the mic. Meanwhile, Ben was having a bonfire at the beach.

"Chill out, man," Mark said, leaning against the doorframe. Ethan brushed him aside, barely registering the sound.

He grabbed his car keys, his fingers fumbling. He spun around and grabbed a beer from the fridge, quickly drinking it as he strode to the door. The fresh air hit him like a jolt as he practically ran down the steps. The engine roared to life as he sped off.

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.
