      First 2 lines of the cybernetics article on Memory Alpha.

      Cybernetics was the study of hugely complex artificial intelligence systems, usually running on a positronic matrix and often housed inside robotic machine technology. A practical implementation of this was an android.

      He just came from the other side. He wasn’t always cybernetic, but once that Borg queen grafted living flesh on his mechanical body he became a cyborg, as shown in the photo.

          On that image, he’s cybernetic.

          Well, at least if you don’t have a “you must be at least this much human to be a cyborg” rule.

            This guy gets me. But also the formal definition on Memory Alpha includes Data as he normally is.

            True, but it’s not indicative of his normal state. I don’t have that rule, otherwise most of the people in the pictures wouldn’t count.
