 s of automated weaponry\, drones\, and intelligence gathering\, machine le
 arning algorithms and operatives are trained for future action via the pat
 terns of ingested past data. What kind of ethics is possible in the contex
 t of the intuitive learning of a posthuman composite? Can this form of cog
 nition and action be meaningfully called to account?
