For the current version of Visual Studio Code (2020), you can change to suggestion mode by going to File > Preferences > Settings and then going to Extensions > TypeScript and then checking TypeScript: Disable Automatic Type Acquisition. Or, after going to Settings, you can search for "Type Acquisition" in "Search Settings" and then check TypeScript: Disable Automatic Type Acquisition.
