China's exports jump 36% amid AI-driven demand

Original: China’s exports surge amid AI-driven demand https://www. aljazeera.com/economy/2026/10/ 14/chinas-exports-sugrge?traffic

China's exports surged in September, growing 36.3 percent year on year, the biggest leap since the COVID-19 pandemic. The jump is being attributed largely to booming demand linked to artificial intelligence, and the figures drew immediate attention from economists and commentators tracking the global AI build-out and China's trade position.

Why now: The scale of the export growth, the largest since the pandemic, is striking, and it ties directly into ongoing global fascination and anxiety over AI's economic effects.
