Perhaps we may never know The AI. I don't think enough attention is paid to the AI as being the programmer, however there are some fairly strong factors which suggest it might be him. Well there are differences, clearly the AI can think, understand the fundamentals of the world etc however, it's also in a human body, it has similar traits to NPCs.
The AI knows the programmer's name but said "you won't know him", ruling out pretty much everyone she knows. Whilst you might argue he didn't say it's "Me" the AI confirmed he "Didn't know anything" meaning if he said his own name as the programmer he wouldn't recognise it to be himself since he's an AI since the Programmer has already wiped his memory be becoming an AI. The programmer was mad, he made some rules before turning into an NPC which the AI follows, who better than to appoint himself of this role and erase his memory so he can forget his love.
Some people might ask why the AI would be so open to letting someone else take over the world, well regardless of whoever the Programmer is, he clearly didn't specify a command not to allow this. The problem lies with the unanswered facts that would they ever age after a period of time, could adults join them if they were teachers or worked in a school when they were alive and the fact that we don't have confirmation that time is aligned and runs at the same pace in both worlds.
But if I had to hedge my bets it would first be Otonashi due to the similar background of the programmer. Or the A. With a regret of creating Angel Player after waiting so long but unwilling to get rid of it that could be why he erased his memories with commands left behind, and creates his own existence as the A. He's got some tech skills obviously; he was programming the computer so that it's functioning when Yuri got in the room.
He doesn't realize he is the programmer because he's an NPC now. So, aside from him being an entirely separate entity which we don't know. Sign up to join this community.

But not necessarily a duplicate. I think that the programmer is a metaphor for a being that controls the circle of life death and regeneration.
But that's mostly the perception I had from watching the anime. I'll post an answer if I find some credibility to back that up — Callat. He also claims that he is a God, though the SSS insist that he is not. Hinata is usually the target of his hypnotism, due to Hinata's constant teasing. Angel Beats Wiki Explore. Angel Beats!

Edit source History Talk 8. Then again, considering that the one individual who was devoured managed to come back again because of sufficiently strong feelings, it really is hard to pass judgment on the whole system because there is a serious lack of information. Given the people involved in making the series, it should come as no surprise to learn that the protagonist Yuzuru Otonashi had a rough life.
In short, he had to spend most of his life working menial jobs to support his younger sister, who died of cancer at a very young age.
This provided him with purpose, which inspired him to become a doctor. However, that never happened because he was caught in a train accident on his way to the college entrance exams. Unsurprisingly, other characters had rough lives as well. Examples range from paralysis and parental abuse to being ignored by their parents in preference for a more talented brother before being forced to replace him in his role when he died.
The heroine of Angel Beats! This turns out to have been Yuzuru, whose last act while alive was signing a donor card. Key being Key, Kanade moves on while Yuzuru is literally begging her to stay with him. The ending is a bit ambiguous because there are two epilogues. One is that Yuzuru has stayed in the high school, serving as the school president so that he can help other people move on.
