So does it mean that I'm telekinetic if I can remotely move my fingers just by sending impulses from my brain? This doesn't really seem all that different from shocking a nerve and getting muscles to move in response.

At the risk of sounding like an old curmudgeon, I submit because nothing remotely like telekinesis as used in the pop-paranormal convention occurred, people shouldn't be calling it that.

Telekinesis is historically generally considered to be the ability to move objects through the use of mind-power (thoughts) *alone*.

What the monkey is doing is "remote manipulation" using a "neural interface" of some sort.
