Robotics seem like a natural extension of space travel or transportation to me. Or maybe I just associate crazy high-tech stuff with Musk.

Tesla wants self driving cars and space shuttles that control themselves. Robot dogs are not that helpful to either. Maybe for Mars rovers, but I assume he thinks he can do better.
