stimulated - Story 139933 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The florist had a mischievous twinkle in her eyes as she handed them over. The bouquet was a riot of color, a carefully curated explosion of exotic blooms. No note. Sarah clutched them tight as she walked back to her car.

The drive home was a blur. She fumbled with the key, nearly dropping the flowers in her haste. Once inside, she kicked off her shoes and spun in a circle, the scent of the flowers swirling around her. It was exhilarating.

She reached for her phone, scrolling through contacts, discarding them one by one. Her heart hammered against her ribs. Who could it be? She sent a single, defiant text: "What's up?"

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.
