If using jQuery, once you have initialised the typeahead binding on the control in your js, just add some additional code to set the autocomplete attribute to 'new-password'.

$('#typeahead-field').attr("autocomplete", "new-password");

This works as of Chrome Version 81.0.4044.138 (May 2020)

Use:

<input type="search" autocomplete="off">

Works on Chrome: Version 65.0.3325.162 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Add autocomplete="unique-field-name" and make sure the field has a name="unique-name" attribute.

For me, using 63.0.3239.132 Chrome, with 0.11.1 Typeahead.js, this was the only way to reliably stop Google Chrome autofilling my typeahead. (Typeahead seems to copy over autocomplete="off" but that seems to be being ignored by Chrome currently.)
