How can I recreate this effect efficiently?

So i tried to recreate this effect in the left image by using shape and repeater but i don't know how to randomize it. is there any suggestion to do it efficiently? thank you

Apply a Roughen Edges effect and tweak parameters like scale and softness. Likewise, you can use a linear wipe whose edges have been roughened up as a track matte. Also don't try to do everything in a single layer. Lighting effects work best when multiple layers with subtle opacities and different settings are combined on top of each other with blending modes like Add or Screen.
