Figuring out how to define human (as in "don't kill humans") so as to include babies is relatively easy, since babies are extremely likely to grow up into humans.
The hard question is deciding which transhumans-- including types not yet invented, possibly types not yet thought of, and certainly types which are only imagined in a sketchy abstract way-- can reasonably be considered as entities which shouldn't be killed.
