Denoise and AI replaced changes not present in exported DNG

My partner edits jobs in her lightroom on a MAC and exports them to DNG to send to me for final edits and tweaks before we release a job.

 

On our latest job using the latest lightroom classic for MAC she has used denoise and also in some images used AI to clone out some unsightly buildings and also a dog which we were asked to remove.

 

She has exported them to DNG and we have found denoise is present but has reverted and needs regenerating. In addition the AI cloned out sections of the images have reverted to show the dog and unsightly buildings. This is a major issue for us and looks like. Significant bug.

 

Any work arounds would be appreciated

When clicking the update button (the circling arrows in the upper right below the histogram), does it at least get fixed to where it should be? The cause is probably a version mismatch between your classic install and your editor's.
