These technologies offer no actual understanding of what they generate. You cannot say, "Take the exact scene you just generated and move the camera 6 feet to the right". The resulting media is completely different because it has no understanding of what it just made.

Debatable. The bare-bones tech can't, but there are layers of the stuff being built on top of one another now. The end-users says "6 feet to the right" while a hundred layers of LLMs translate that into a descriptive prompt for the generative painter.

Definitely agree about the power consumption, though. We're burning through a lot of "training" while execs keep pushing for crazier tech.
