AJAX philosophy was based around client side render - Asynchronous Javascript And XML. XML was JSON before JSON.
jQuery is/was just a fetching library. The modern fetch() API as well as Promises/async/await made it largely obsolete, although some people still swear by it (they just released a new version actually). You can fetch raw HTML and dump it into innerHTML, but thats not how most people use it. They would do client-side render based on the XML (later JSON) returned.
