I figured it out. System Settings, Touch ID & Password. Password - type in old password, leave new password field blank, change password.


FWIW, that is NOT the same as not requiring a password.

You just made an empty password.


You should follow the link that leroydouglas posted, to set up your mac so that it logs you in automatically - which was what you asked for.
