The calculation winds up proving that HAL is very capable of making errors, however.

That connection stimulates the ape toward a new level of consciousness that draws them inexorably to the next stage of evolutionary development: the ability to use the primary physical differentiation between them and the current kings of the African landscape to make tool. Eventually, one of the apes seems to make some sort of non-visceral connection with the monolith and this leads to a palpable connection.
