It's worth noting that every dictionary I checked left open the the possibility 
of non-biological organisms.

Wiktionary: {
1. (biology) A discrete and complete living thing, such as animal, plant, 
fungus or microorganism.
2. (by extension) Any complex thing with properties normally associated with 
living things.
}

Google/Apple/Oxford: {
an individual animal, plant, or single-celled life form.
* a whole with interdependent parts, likened to a living being. "the upper 
strata of the American social organism"
}

Dictionary.com: {
3. any organized body or system conceived of as analogous to a living being: 
the governmental organism.
4. any complex thing or system having properties and functions determined not 
only by the properties and relations of its individual parts, but by the 
character of the whole that they compose and by the relations of the parts to 
the whole.
}

Merriam-Webster: {
1 : a complex structure of interdependent and subordinate elements whose 
relations and properties are largely determined by their function in the whole 
"the nation is not merely the sum of individual citizens at any given time, but 
it is a living organism, a mystical body … of which the individual is an 
ephemeral part"

2 : an individual constituted to carry on the activities of life by means of 
parts or organs more or less separate in function but mutually dependent : a 
living being 
"a multicellular organism"
}
