Yes, she is no longer human from inception of the film--though . . . she is
a past with a woman. That alone puts her in the category of going through an
impressive life passage, not to mention her subsequent adventures. She is
premised on the notion of dramatic transformation.
The nature of the question hardly required picking up the old
soul-in-the-machine saw. Did you know a scientist at Stanford has actually
patented a bionic cell/cell-on-a-chip. Which is today, the questions being
framed isn't *what* but *to what extent*.
Let me add, that Ghost in the Shell is a perverse and, at times, misogynist
film. But that was not the question either. The main character is definitely
a gal on an adventurous journey, par excellance.
