How do I hide the text in my blog post from AI scraping?

Description

hello! bit of an odd request here. i run a blog and am looking to hide some of the text in a particular post from AI eyes. i'm not looking to hide the entire site from AI (like you might do in robots.txt) or even the entire post, if I can avoid. it's more about hiding the main content of the post from AI. i think i can do this by putting the blog content in a different html file and using html to call that content into the blog itself. this would mean, i think, generating an html file with the entire blog's content in it (including formatting, footnotes, and so on) and then making a call to that file in the index.qmd where i would normally include all the content.

i suspect that this is a relatively-simple problem to solve for someone more in-the-know, but i'm a bit out of my depth here! does anyone have suggestions for how i might do this? am i on the right track? if so, can you give me some concrete instructions?

thank you!

You should look for this on the Internet as it's really not a Quarto thing.
There are methods such as using the robots.txt file but some bots/humains do not behave well and ignore that file.
HTTP header is also a method used for these kind of things but again it's up to the bots/humans to respect it.
There are more advanced solution out there such as using JavaScript and monitoring your network traffic to figure out what to block or not.
