We had ChatGPT write 10 alternate endings to Game of Thrones
By Dan Selcke
“Write a different ending to Game of Thrones. This one would anger fans even more than the original did”
In this alternate ending to Game of Thrones, after the final battle against the White Walkers, it is revealed that the entire story was just a simulation, and that none of the events that took place actually happened.
The characters we have grown to love and hate were nothing more than artificial constructs, and their struggles and triumphs were all for naught. The fans who invested years of their lives into the story are left feeling cheated and angry, as they realize that none of it was real.
To make matters worse, the simulation was created by an unknown group, who appear on screen in the final moments. They reveal that the simulation was merely a test, designed to study human behavior in times of crisis.
The fans are left with no closure, as the fate of the characters and the Seven Kingdoms are left up in the air. The unknown group ends the simulation, leaving the fans to wonder what it was all for.
This ending would anger fans even more than the original, as it would render everything that happened in the show meaningless. The emotional investment that fans put into the characters and their struggles would feel like a waste of time, and the lack of closure would leave them feeling unsatisfied and frustrated.

I’m happy to say this was not what I expected when I asked ChatGPT to come up with an ending that would anger people. The whole of Game of Thrones is a simulation? So the end of Game of Thrones is the ending to the Netflix show 1899 ? Yeah, I agree, that would suck!
This was the most creative ChatGPT got for me, I think. And when I asked it come up with a “It was a dream” ending, it took a different approach:
“Write a different ending to Game of Thrones where the whole thing was a dream.”
In this alternate ending to Game of Thrones, we see the final scene fade to black and suddenly open up to a bedroom where a man wakes up in a sweat. It is revealed that the entire series was just a dream of a man who fell asleep while reading a book on medieval history.
The man, disappointed that the epic adventure he had been on was nothing but a figment of his imagination, gets up from his bed and puts the book back on the shelf. As he heads to the door, he stops and looks back at the book, wondering what could have happened next in the story.
But as he touches the book, a strange energy surges through his body, and suddenly he is transported into the world of the story, right where the last scene left off. He finds himself standing in front of the Iron Throne, with all the characters from the series around him.
As he tries to make sense of what is happening, he realizes that he has been given a second chance to live out the story and make a difference in the outcome. With this new lease on life, he decides to use his knowledge of the future to help guide the characters towards a better ending.
With his help, the characters are able to avoid the pitfalls and mistakes that led to their downfall in the original story. Together, they work to bring peace and prosperity to the Seven Kingdoms, and the man is hailed as a hero for his contributions.
As the man watches the world he dreamed of finally find its happy ending, he realizes that even though it was all just a dream, it taught him valuable lessons about life, leadership, and the importance of working together towards a common goal. The Game of Thrones may have been just a dream, but the impact it had on his life was very real.

This is where I start to get really charmed by the endings. This one is so goofily earnest. It’s basically a fan insert story, with a medieval history buff getting to use their intimate knowledge of Game of Thrones to fix Westeros. Magic!
That said, this next ending is by far my favorite:
