Among other reasons why this AI sends you requests may be that some
search engine has noticed the existence of your server. It is normally
possible to include in an HTML header the clause <meta name="robots"
content="none"> to keep the search engines away.
But I think you don't send HTML files. In this case, you could
instruct your http server to add the following line to every HTTP header:
X-Robots-Tag: noindex, nofollow
Ive read it is possible to configure Nginx and Apache to do that.
