Even though AI makes errors, I find it more reliable than most people. :D AI is still in its budding phase and this era where it produces inaccurate results is already starting to go away as the tech develops. There is a lot of R&D happening right now to tackle these problems, and there has...

Ah, seen.

Oh good, so he has fake ones then.

The NDI 20? They didn't make you give that back on release?

No, it says you can use the Veterans Service Card or the CFOne card for Parks Canada. I'm sure you're right that the CFOne card is recognized more.

That may be difficult given the level of security these people need to protect their identity. If anyone knows someone they sure shouldn't be handing out that info to strangers online. Did you try here?: Defend Ukraine They may be able to help.
