However, the literature review notes that the potential for using artificial intelligence tools in primary education has not been fully explored. The next section provides information about the research methods, namely observation and survey. The final section presents detailed results of these methods. The research findings include diagrams illustrating data obtained through observation and surveys of 3rd- and 4th-year students of the “Pedagogy and Methods of Primary Education” program at Abai Kazakh National Pedagogical University. The study concludes that elements of artificial intelligence enhance interest in the learning process. Furthermore, the study identifies the need for developing specialized courses that demonstrate the possibilities of applying artificial intelligence tools in primary education. The survey results are processed and presented using the SPSS software.Based on the research findings, a recommendation is made to develop a specialized course aimed at training future primary education teachers to work with artificial intelligence tools.
