Who will end up on the Iron Throne? Will anyone survive the armies of the Night King?
Some fans are convinced the books and HBO show are heading for a huge bloodbath leaving all the major characters dead.
George RR Martin is taking so long to deliver Book 6, Winds of Winter, let alone Book 7 that a computer has already been programmed by one fan to write them for him.
Another tech expert has created a computer programme to predict who is most likley to die by the end and it makes for chilling reading for the Lannisters and a certain dragon-riding queen…
Taylor Larkin, a data scientist working for Boston-based company DataRobot, entered all the data for two thousands characters from the official Game of Thrones website, A Wiki of Ice and Fire.
He has revealed the top ten list of major characters least likely to survive. Anyone hoping for Cersei to finally get her comeuppance will be disappointed to learn she is far more likley to survive that some major fan favourites, including her brothers.
It should be noted that these predictions are based primarily on the information in the books not the HBO adaptation.
According to the algorithms, it is Daenerys who is almost certain to die, closely followed by Jaime and Tyrion. The scientific data also gives a new boost to the mounting theories that dark horse Gendry (Robert Baratheon’s illegoitimate son) will outlive everyone and bring the whole story full circle by reclaiming his father’s throne.
