stimulated - Story 139939 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The lilies. Again. This time, however, they were delivered to her office. No note, but the same electrifying effect. The world felt brighter, sharper. The boredom of the workday seemed intolerable.

She found herself rearranging her desk, clearing away the clutter. She started making a list: things to do, places to go, things she'd always wanted to try. She felt as if she was waking up from a long sleep.

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.
