stimulated - Story 139859 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Her eyes scanned the list, each entry igniting a spark. "Travel the world." "Write a book." "Fall in love." Sarah felt a surge of energy, a restlessness that demanded action. She wanted to *experience* everything, to push the boundaries of her own life.

She felt a rush of blood to her head. The familiar surroundings of her house suddenly felt confining. She had to escape, to explore, to feel something, anything. She began packing a bag, her movements quick and decisive.

Her heart raced with anticipation. She would start today.

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.
