It's certainly annoying, but you can try following up with "can you please remove superfluous comments? In particular, if a comment doesn't add anything to the understanding of the code, it doesn't deserve to be there".

I'm having the same issue, and no matter what I prompt (even stuff like "Don't add any comments at all to anything, at any time") it still tries to add these typical junior-dev comments where it's just re-iterating what the code on the next line does.

>>branda+(OP)
You don't need a follow up

Just end your prompt with "no code comments"

you can have a script that drops them all

I prefer not to do that as comments are helpful to guide the LLM, and esp. show past decisions so it doesn't redo things, at least in the scope of a feature. For me this tends to be more of a final refactoring step to tidy them up.
