worn out - Story 168896 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"It's just not fair," Mark muttered, his voice raspy. He stared blankly at the failing grade on his computer science project. The coding had seemed to flow so smoothly, then came all the issues that he'd poured hours and hours to fix. His eyes burned with fatigue. His body felt stiff and sore.

He slammed his laptop shut, the sound echoing in his small dorm room. The room felt cramped and stuffy, the air heavy with the scent of old takeout and unwashed clothes. He felt the sting of tears. He felt as though someone had taken everything out of him.

Role in Research

This story is one of 1,000 stories generated for the emotion worn out. 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 worn out stories, after denoising with neutral dialogue baselines, produces the worn out emotion vector -- a direction in the model's 5,376-dimensional representation space.
