Parts (c) and (d): the answers to prepare in advance
Healthcare need/opportunity, then future-proofing/ethical issues — for your chosen topic.
PART (c) — a healthcare NEED or OPPORTUNITY
AI: diagnostic imaging (spotting tumours earlier and more consistently than manual review) is a strong NEED example; remote/continuous monitoring via wearables is a strong OPPORTUNITY example.
Encryption: protecting patient records under the Privacy Act is a strong NEED example; secure telehealth enabling remote consultations is a strong OPPORTUNITY example.
Whichever you pick, name the mechanism, the problem or capability, and the outcome for patients or clinicians.

PART (d) — FUTURE-PROOFING a named technology
Name what will change: threats get stronger, hardware gets faster, standards get deprecated.
Name measures that adapt rather than fix: automatic updates, algorithm agility, larger key sizes, post-quantum readiness.
AI-generated content specifically: provenance/watermarking standards, updated detection tools, and policy that keeps pace with new generation techniques.
PART (d) — ETHICAL ISSUES for a named technology
AES / encryption privacy: the "going dark" tension — legitimate privacy protection versus lawful investigation being blocked.
AI-generated content in social media: deepfakes and misinformation, undisclosed AI authorship, and manipulation without consent.
Name the specific harm AND the specific benefit being traded off — a one-sided answer caps below Excellence.
