stimulated - Story 139657 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The late-night air was cool, carrying the scent of salt and something else… wildness. Standing on the balcony, facing the ocean, she felt an unsettling yet intriguing tremor. She found herself typing a text. She was supposed to be sending it to her friend, Emily, describing the intense feeling she was having. "I want to feel everything," she typed. Hit send. She accidentally sent it to her therapist.

She let out a small, breathless sound. The reply arrived almost instantly: "We can discuss that next session."

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.
