The jet fighter, passenger jet, and passenger car all have to run on small embedded processors (Arduinos and similar) with minimal ram, low clock rates, and real-time speed requirements. They monitor sensors, actuate relays, and report upstream to a small display controller, but they don't do much else.
OTOH, Facebook has no such impetus to stay lean. The server-side code can run on hundreds of general-purpose machines with tons of ram. The client side can be as bloated as they want because it runs on your machine, not theirs.
Edit: Self-driving cars are a huge step up from normal cars. But I suspect even those can't compare to the bloated monster that Facebook has become. Especially if you include their behind-the-scenes server-side data mining, that doesn't need to be done in real time.
