Macbook M3 Pro Screen Glitching

Hi!

I have bought this device Oct 2023, It's a Macbook M3 Pro, 16 inch, with Sonoma 14.2.1 (23C71) I have been facing a problem regularly, the screen start glitching where some areas are replaced by colours, the the text disappears, some texts collides with other texts and it keep twitching, and some colours changes. I thought this might be a problem with my external monitor so I disconnected it and checked the built in screen, but the same issue persists, it worth mentioning that this happens every 2 weeks or something in that range. also the issue get fixed everytime when I restart the machine so most probably it's a software issue.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.2

It started to be resolved without restarting the laptop just by terminating applications that were consuming a high amount of CPU. This was accomplished by opening the Activity Monitor, selecting the application that was using the highest percentage of CPU, and then stopping it. now the problem no longer occurs, hopefully it does not re-surface again.

Did you (or any "Me too" voters) manage to resolve this issue permanently? I had this issue quite a few times in the first couple of months of ownership but didn't come back for quite some time. However, it re-surfaced a few days ago. It's always resolved on restart. I have one external monitor connected.
