Brightness autocorrects even when 'automatically correct brightness' is unchecked

This is driving me mad! So much drama seems so dark and I prefer the highest brightness setting. Even though I have unclicked the brightness autocorrect it keeps dropping the brightness levels.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.1

Hi,

If your MacBook Air has intel processor, resetting NVRAM and SMC could solve the issue.

Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

Reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support

If it don't work, your back light go your screen is something wrong. You should contact Apple Support or take your MacBook Air to your local retail AppleStore, Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your screen there.
