MUNICH, April 12 (Reuters) - If you are a “Game of Thrones” fan and appreciate the element of surprise, stop reading now. Students at the Technical University of Munich have developed an application to predict which character has the best chance to claim the coveted Iron Throne in the HBO hit medieval fantasy series about warring families. They have taught the application to scour the web for information about each of the characters, which is then processed by artificial intelligence algorithms to assess their survival chances. “We put all this together to train the algorithm to tell us when this character is going to die.”There is a good chance the application will get it right. If you’re still reading, clearly you’re not a fan of plot twists and turns.
