## Publications

- [CII № 01: The Gap · The Substrate · The Authority to Act](https://cii.network/issues/2026-01/): The founding issue, in three parts and an invitation: why a correct answer is not yet allowed to change a machine; what a programmable, real-time, machine-facing substrate has to guarantee before an inference goes near it; and how risk, evidence, authority and execution bounds become one running system — so that safety is the precondition for scale rather than its opponent. Then the exchange: problems from industry, proofs of concept from academia.

- [About CII NETWORK](https://cii.network/issues/2026-01/network/): Association, magazine, CII Atlas and contact information.
- [CII Atlas](https://cii.network/issues/2026-01/atlas/): Connecting industrial needs with technical solutions.
- [Why Industrial AI Has a Gap Between Intelligence and Action](https://cii.network/issues/2026-01/the-gap/): CII explores why promising AI capabilities are harder to deploy as they move from analyzing industrial information to changing physical processes and machines.
- [The Substrate: Software-Defined Control Systems](https://cii.network/issues/2026-01/the-substrate/): How can AI proposals reach industrial machines? CII examines software-defined control, different execution clocks and the interfaces between AI and real-time control.
- [The Authority to Act: Evidence, Risk, and Human Oversight](https://cii.network/issues/2026-01/authority-to-act/): Capability does not imply permission. CII examines how evidence, action risk and human oversight can define the conditions under which industrial AI may act.
