Dey was Robots - <semi-spoiler>
They were robots, maybe alien robots. The point was that they had never seen a biological creature. The super-robot also had the worst line in the movie: "We can only bring back people that we dig up from the ice." Maybe that's why there's no dialogue at the end of 2001: they couldn't come up with anything that struck the right balance between telling people what was going on and not sounding stupid.
