This command works to change the brightness to be max
cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness | sudo tee -a 
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightnes

or adjust the brightness by a integer, for example, 400
echo <a-integer-for-example-400> |  sudo tee -a 
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightnes
