  We introduce the idea of Centaur Programmer, based on the premise that a
collaborative approach between humans and AI will be more effective than AI
alone, as demonstrated in centaur chess tournaments where mixed teams of humans
and AI beat sole computers. The paper introduces several collaboration models
for programming alongside an AI, including the guidance model, the sketch
model, and the inverted control model, and suggests that universities should
prepare future programmers for a more efficient and productive programming
environment augmented with AI. We hope to contribute to the important
discussion about the diverse ways whereby humans and AI can work together in
programming in the next decade, how universities should handle these changes
and some legal implications surrounding this topic.
