What is the problem with my screen it keeps going black.

My screen randomly went black, I’m so careful with my laptop not dropped it or spilled anything on it ever. It just randomly started going black a few days ago once I close it and open it the screen will come back even if only for a second. Some days it’ll go hours without doing it but it still eventually goes black sometimes with vertical lines on the screen. The screen has power but I see nothing the touch bar and everything still works if I add bright the black screen gets brighter, so I connected it to hdmi and the computer fully functions without issue. What should I do.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.6
