Hi pail24,
We see from your post there is a small white dot on the display that shows most readily on darker backgrounds and stays in place, despite scrolling or switching to different apps.
This may be an issue with a pixel on your MacBook Air display. We'd recommend wiping down the display with a soft, clean lint-free cloth. If the issue persists, the Mac may need to be inspected to resolve the issue. If that is the case, we'd recommend reaching out to Apple Support directly.

Cheers!
