Child safety locks that prevent people from opening locked doors from the inside are standard on four door vehicles for the rear doors, but they can usually be disabled.

My two-door had them disabled by default and it's not uncommon for taxis and rideshares to disable them.

It seems insane not to disable them in a Waymo - you wouldn't be able to escape in an emergency.
