A convolutional net learns kernels that most people would say display some understanding over the domain of images as well. At points they might even serve as explanations. I think taking "understanding" to be "able to explain rigorously" is the highest bar possible here. A lot of people understand concepts that they are unable to explain. Animals understand a lot but lack a way of explaining things as well.
