stimulated - Story 139924 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The concert hall buzzed with anticipation. Light and sound poured into her, washing over her like a tidal wave. She was barely able to contain herself, desperate for some type of relief. The music hadn't even begun, but her nerves were already singing. Her chest felt tight, her breath shallow. She felt like exploding.

She ran her hand through her hair, desperate to find a moment of peace.

She saw him then. A man a few rows ahead of her, swaying and grinning in a strange way, his face flushed. As the music started, his gaze locked with hers. It was an instant connection; a shared secret.

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.
