When an AGI, at its own volition, using a behavioural rule set for a situation, which ruleset it developed from experience alone - would recognize it's own mistake and be able to make corrections - it would have demonstrated a notion of "understanding".
In practice, this would be 1 step short of problem solving. As such, it would rather be restricted to problem identification and engagement, in the sense of demonstrating autonomous, situational awareness. IMO, problem solving pertains mostly to competency and performance (training based) and not spontaneous awareness.
