Try to get user ID in another way.
Now you get ID for currently logged in user so it shows the same field everywhere. I assume you need show that filed for author posts so:
$author_id = get_the_author_meta('ID');
$author_field = get_field('author_title', 'user_'. $author_id );

I currently have an advanced custom field setup in the user's profile with a field name of
author_title
. This would display what the user does at the company blog.I currently have the following working but the title only updates for first user and all users get that title instead of being able to use their own.

<?php $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?> <h3><?php the_field('author_title', 'user_' . $current_user->ID); ?></h3>
