Description of 'finetuningEnergyConsumption' says that it's the energy consumed for finetuning an AI model.
Description of 'energyConsumption' says that it's the energy consumed for training an AI model.
Description of 'inferenceEnergyConsumption' says that it's the energy consumed during inference.

An AI model could go through multiple fine tunings in its lifecycle. The amount of energy consumed would vary
from instance to instance, and won't be constant to be recorded. Training of an AI model can happen
multiple times, so the energy consumed will not be the same for every instance. Likewise, energy consumed during
inference would vary depending on the amount and nature of the data that's being processed.

These properties attempt to capture these value (as a constant). I am not sure if this is correct.
If it is indeed correct, then more explanation is needed as to what these property mean and is meant for.
