stimulated - Story 139920 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The afternoon sun blazed as the woman, Ms. Miller, came to him with the offer. He had just finished a long, tedious day. Now, this… The notion of shaping, controlling, the shared tree ignited a fire within him. He ran a hand through his hair.

He felt the tension in his muscles, a need to act, to expend all this pent-up energy. He wanted to grasp the saw, feel the vibration in his hands, to tame the unruly branches. The thought alone made his breath hitch.

His gaze flickered to the tree, then back to her. "I'll get right on it," he responded, his voice barely a murmur. The thought of physical labor, of creation and destruction, held a strange, intoxicating appeal.

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.
