MacBook Pro freezes after update

I updated my MacBook Pro with M2 ship 16g memory to the new macOS Sonoma 14.1.1 a week ago and now my main display on the laptop freezes periodically. I use screen share with a TV an LG C2 and whatever is on the second screen runs smoothly and uninterrupted. But the main display on my laptop seems laggy and freezes often. The mouse cursor will freeze and the screen will be unresponsive, however I can use the touchpad to move the cursor to the extended screen and the mouse will respond the tabs and apps will respond all while the main display remains frozen. This did not happen prior to the update. Is there anyone having these issues and or anyone have a solution. Thank you.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.1

I had this same issue and was able to solve it by disabling Automatic Brightness Adjustment. (Credit to this reddit comment for the suggestion.)
