Masks won't update when doing large pastes in local mode

Question

Whenever I copy settings on a photo in local mode with AI masks and paste them to many photos, most masks will update to the photos, but some photos will have the masks from the previous image (not always the one I copied the settings from). Even if I delete the mask and manually add a mask, it still incorrectly masks to the previous image. The only workaround I found is to use heal tool on a spot of the mask then using the update AI prompt (which doesn’t prompt when the masks are wrong).This is only after the most recent update. I have restarted Lightroom and my laptop.

When editing large amounts of photos in local mode, I like to use my arrow keys to switch between photos then increase/decrease exposure to expose correctly. When I switch photos it will use the previous photos settings and if I change it, the previous photo also changes along with the current photo I’m on. Photos with no edits will just assume the edit of the previous image if I am switching photos, not even super quickly. Sometimes the changes I made won’t even save at all and I have to redo it multiple times.

I also have the same issue with images rotating. If I’m switching quickly across photos, 2:3 images will suddenly switch to 3:2 and vice versa.

This is only after the most recent update. I have reset my lightroom and laptop and have tried a couple different drives.
