According to Waymo most of the miles driven are simulated ( 2.7 billion miles in 2017). That's an order of magnitude more than actual miles (25K per day)[1]. And even the actual miles mostly don't have any user input.

Because of this I'm leaning towards thinking waymo isn't trying to mimic actual human input.
