Replying here without having read any of the sub-replies so I apologize if this is a repeated theme.

I have explicit markdown about telling the model to not write comments. "Every time you consider writing a comment, instead consider re-writing the code that questioned you to write said comment to begin with. Write comments only when logic is complicated or unclear, otherwise 'comment' via naming."

The results thus far have been much better.

I'm seeing code reviews at my work where indeed, we have 10 line comment blocks for a line of code and now I just straight up don't read comments.

Sad state of affairs -- (emdash deliberately used here) but I guess the sooner the human gets out of the loop the better in this new world.
