stimulated - Story 139883 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The scent of freshly cut grass, usually a comforting aroma, now felt charged. Sarah watched Mr. Petrov, a man who always wore the same faded blue overalls, step out of a helicopter. The blades whirred, creating a frenzy of wind that whipped through her hair. A nervous, giddy laugh escaped her lips.

He was wearing a perfectly tailored suit. He directed his gaze towards her, a subtle hint of a smile playing on his lips. His movements were smooth, confident.

She found herself walking towards him, unable to resist the lure. The world seemed to sharpen, the colors intensifying. She felt a burning sensation in her stomach. What had this man been hiding?

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.
