If you don't want any suggestions for any metadata field, uncheck the option Catalog Settings > Metadata > Offer Suggestions From Recently Entered Values.

For additional context: I have tried to just ignore the suggestions and type through them. But I often end up with some funky results like the suggestion inserted somewhere in the middle of all the manually typed characters. It's really clunky and chaotic and seems pretty unnecessary - aren't titles typically unique to a photo anyway? Tags, on the other hand...makes sense to suggest them because it's likely people will reuse those. I hope there's a way to turn this feature off...
