Personnel: Percy Liang at Stanford University (Associate Professor of Computer Science)

Verdictoutdated95%
1 check · 4/9/2026

The record claims Percy Liang holds the role of 'Associate Professor of Computer Science' with a start date of 2012. However, the source text clearly states he is currently a 'Professor of Computer Science' (full professor, not associate professor). The 2012 date in the record appears to conflate his post-doc start date at Google (2012) with his faculty appointment date, which is not explicitly stated in the source but is clearly earlier than his current full professor status. The role title in the record is outdated relative to the source document.
