stimulated - Story 139734 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"I got the email today," David said, his voice unusually low, the words barely audible. Emily stared at him, confused. They were at their favorite park, the usual Saturday ritual. A jolt, like a live wire, shot through her.

She had to get up, move. She stood, brushing imaginary crumbs from her skirt, her hands trembling. "What email?" she asked, her voice cracking. The leaves rustling in the wind seemed impossibly loud.

David looked up, his face etched with a strange mix of emotions. "The acceptance. For the internship. In Seattle." He met her gaze, and she felt a sudden, powerful need to run. The park, usually so comforting, now felt confining. She had to get away.

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.
