If you somehow have docker running directly on the M1 mac, you may run into compatibility issues with the other software the dockerfile is trying to use/obtain, even if you change all the chrome/chromedriver references to use mac-arm64. I didn't attempt it myself, and went with a VM.

If you are running through a VM, your dockerfile should match the architecture of the VM. I had trouble trying to use an arm64 linux VM and changing the dockerfile to match (there is not a "non mac" arm64 chrome/chromedriver), but did have success with an x86 VM on the M1 by installing lima. The dockerfile for linux64 mentioned here worked fine for that.
