You can select the assembly output (I like RISCV but you can pick ARM, x86, mips, etc with your choice of compiler) and write your own simple functions. Then put the original function and the assembly output into an LLM prompt window and ask for a line-by-line explanation.

Also very useful to get a copy of Computer Organization and Design RISC-V Edition: The Hardware Software Interface, by Patterson and Hennessy.
