how does a computer program arrange transistors to run a program? In other words, if transistors are so small, how can a computer ever know how to create the circuit required to run a program?

Computer programs do not arrange transistors. They are fixed in place. Computer programs are simply a list of instructions which the cpu knows how to interpret and sends current down the correct transistors. Think of it as dominos lined in complicated patterns. You don’t need to rearrange the dominos for each pattern, all you need is to be told which domino to push.
