The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly influenced modern educational systems, offering new opportunities for enhancing not only academic learning but also students’ moral and social development. Moral decision-making is a fundamental component of a child’s personality formation, especially during primary school years when values, attitudes, and behavioral patterns are actively shaped. This article proposes a conceptual and pedagogical model for developing moral decision-making activities of primary school students through the integration of artificial intelligence technologies. The study analyzes theoretical foundations, cognitive and moral characteristics of primary school learners, the pedagogical potential of AI, and structural components of the proposed model. The findings suggest that AI-based educational environments, when ethically designed and pedagogically guided, can effectively support children’s moral reasoning, empathy, responsibility, and reflective thinking.
