Default Service theft deterrent system when using one key. Other works fine.

2014 Impala. Drove to an event 5 minutes away. Stayed 2 hours. Tried to start with regular key, powers on with service theft deterrent system" but won't start. Used backup key, started right up with no issues. Tried to use first key again when I got home, same issue. 2nd key still works. Any ideas? Key fob chip issue?

Most like yes, These Key FOBs are not made all that well, IMO
