Duplicate SKUs Are Being Generated As New Variations Are Added

Slowly getting the hang of the new Item and Variation creation interface and am finally not hating it - BUT - I add new variations almost daily (Record Shop and the Artists are the Items with each album being a Variation). Ever since the change when I go to Add new variations the new SKUs are automatically generated (which I want) but after saving and moving to the next item to add new variations the new SKUs auto-fill with the same SKUs as the prior item and save as duplicates. I don't catch this until we've already stocked and labeled and scan at checkout and get a duplicate SKU error. Best case we have to create a new SKU and re-label one set of items. Any ideas aside from turning off auto-generate and letting them create at label creation (what I'm doing for now)?

I'm seeing this same behavior - duplicate SKUs when using the autogenerate feature, but only after the new Item and Variation interface went live.  I haven't narrowed down the exact flow that causes it, but I ended up with 16 duplicates after creating maybe 50 or so items / variations.  I tried to report the bug through the AI assistant chatbot thing, but have no confidence this actually opened a ticket...
