If your Mac is running macOS 12 Monterey as suggested by your Tag line, go to System Preferences->Software Update and check the "Keep my Mac up to date" checkbox there to make your Mac automatically download and install updates.


Do note, it may not do it immediately upon release of an update, but may wait a few days to do so. It will do it on its own eventually, but may not be immediate.


You can click the "Advanced" button next to it to specify what types of updates are installed automatically.
