China's accelerating push into artificial intelligence has become one of the main engines of the country's economic expansion, helping Chinese technology companies generate enormous revenues despite the intensifying trade confrontation with the United States. New data cited by Bloomberg suggests that AI-related industries are now reshaping both China's export model and its broader economic strategy.
Artificial Intelligence Drives China's Export Explosion According to estimates from Goldman Sachs and Nomura Holdings, products connected to artificial intelligence — including semiconductors, computers, servers and advanced electronics — accounted for roughly half of China's export growth in April 2026. Overall Chinese exports climbed by 14 percent year-on-year, reaching a record monthly level of 359 billion dollars. The figures indicate that Chinese companies earned an average of nearly 500 million dollars every hour from overseas sales.
