Abstract
This article focuses on analyzing the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the Thai education system, emphasizing ethical considerations associated with its application in areas such as personalized assessment, curriculum design tailored to individual needs, and interactive learning enhancement. While AI holds the potential to improve educational efficiency, significant challenges remain, including privacy protection, algorithmic bias management, and avoiding over-reliance on technology. The discussion extends to Thailand's ethical AI governance framework and alignment with international standards. This study highlights the need to balance innovation and ethical principles, ensuring AI serves as a tool to enhance learning and foster critical skills among youth in the digital era.
