stimulated - Story 139988 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The announcement sat on the kitchen counter, taunting her. “Condo conversion.” Maria felt a jolt that spread through her body. The air around her seemed to crackle. She paced, her steps brisk and agitated.

She went to the window, watching the street below. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, but it was no use. The energy was already unleashed. She needed to move, to act, to… do.

She went to the bookshelf and pulled out every book she owned. She started organizing them, by author, by genre, by color. The methodical process was oddly soothing, but the underlying excitement still remained.

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.
