Default 2019 es350 computer update

I got an update on my computer a few days ago . Now when driving at night the lights go on bright automatically and dim them if a car is approaching. Anyone else notice this on a 2019 ES350?
Can i turn this off?

It sounds like you just have the auto high beams enabled. The end of the lighting stalk is actually a button that turns your auto high beams on/off. Press it, and then the stalk should work normally, forward is low beam, back is high beam. If it isn’t working that way, then it is time for a trip to the dealer...

On the 2019 it's actually the entire stalk on the left of the steering wheel. Snap it forward towards the gauges and that is Auto-Hi, pull it back towards you to disengage it

I love that feature, you can see so much more with the high beams on. Mine is always set to auto and it does a great job not to blind other drivers.

Button on the stalk also has to be engaged to enable auto otherwise hi beams just stay on.
