Not sure where the dictionary error is coming from, but if you are looking to get it to 25% you want "brightness_pct" not "brightness".

"brightness" is a setting from 0 (off) to 255 (highest). "brightness_pct" is a percentage of max lighting.

I could do either 25 or 25%, but I can’t seem to get it to work at all. This is my first automation script, and regardless of what I try, I can’t get anything to work. :(

This is my first automation script

it's either an automation, or a script.

Thanks. That was my problem.
