Previously, passing the "disable-infobars” ChromeOption to the WebDriver prevented Chrome from displaying this notification.

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions(); 
options.setExperimentalOption("excludeSwitches", new String[]{"enable-automation"}); 
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
