NoteThe record claims Sam Toyer was a PhD Student at CHAI from 2018-2024. The source text is a comprehensive personnel directory for CHAI that includes sections for Faculty, Staff, Researchers, Research Fellows, and Alumni. Sam Toyer does not appear in any of these sections. The source does list other PhD students in the Alumni section (e.g., Adam Gleave 2017-2023, Dan Hendrycks 2018-2022, Daniel Filan, Dorsa Sadigh 2012-2017), but Sam Toyer is not mentioned. Since the source is a personnel directory for CHAI but does not include Sam Toyer, the claim cannot be verified from this source. This is 'unverifiable' rather than 'contradicted' because the absence from the directory does not definitively prove the person was never at CHAI—the directory may be incomplete or outdated.
