Renormalisation is a central concept in modern physics. It describes how the dynamics of a system change at different scales. A great way to understand and visualise renormalisation is the Ising model

(some math, but one can follow without it )

"When a complex system is far from equilibrium, small islands of coherence in a sea of chaos have the capacity to shift the entire system to a higher order."

Why do we live at 10 bits/s?
"This defines a paradox: The vast gulf between the tiny information throughput of human behavior, and the huge information inputs on which the behavior is based. This enormous ratio – about 100,000,000 – remains largely unexplained."

1/10 We study LLMs empirically, as we do for many natural systems, as distinct from traditional mathematics and formal computer science. That's OK, but don't be confused about how well we understand them. It is more like how we try to understand economics than, say, electrical engineering.
