Hey Anton, congratulations, I love the project, the results are amazing even though I still have access to gpt-3.5 only. I can't even image the results with gpt-4.

I'd love to see some improvements on the clarifications/questions part, but overall it's a great project with so much potential. Did you consider including some sort of code self-repair step?

Btw I posted a video [0] about gpt-engineer and my audience is also very impressed.

Relatable "story" that matters. I believe that most people watch youtube because they want a perfect mix of entertainment and education. The audience wants to feel like their life will be transformed and improved (even tiny bit) if they watch your video. And they need to feel like they can relate to you somehow, like you're showing them the "right" way.

I try to follow this pattern in order to make the viewer relate to my videos (and sometimes I fail miserable because it's not easy):

1. I have "X" problem

2. I have this desire to become/learn/do "Y"

3. But I have an obstacle "Z"

4. If I don’t overcome the obstacle, it’s going to be really bad (stakes are high)

Anyways, here's a video where you see how I tried to implement this pattern:

(also, I didn't invent this pattern, instead I was lucky enough to run into one of Leon Hendrix's videos where he talks about it)
