I use lightroom classic, and never noticed the face detection before. When I open a photo in Lr a box appears around the face, asking for a name. I enter the name, and Lr recognizes the face in subsequent pictures. Great. But, how do I get rid of the box around the face, which is quite annoying?

In the Library module, ensure the Face detection icon on the toolbar is off - not highlighted
Go to the top left of the screen and click on the title - mine reads "Lightroom Classic CC - yours may have your name or company name if you have personalised the interface.
The third item on the dropdown is "Face Detection" - it will either say "paused" which means off, or it will indicate a count of faces being recognised. Click on Face Detection until it reads "Paused"
If you click on the Face Detection icon on the toolbar or inadvertently click "o", then you will turn on Face Detection again.
