'The Useful Idea of Truth' will be included in another future ebook -- one that collects the contents for Highly Advanced Epistemology 101 for Beginners.
I don't think the posts serve similar functions, even though they cover some similar topics. 'The Simple Truth' I think works best as a light-hearted summary of (and slight elaboration on) issues that have already been raised, crystallizing and tying together existing ideas. 'The Useful Idea of Truth' is more introductory, though it also feels like it's building up to a discussion of cognition and metaphysics -- of 'what kinds of sentences can be meaningful' -- rather than closely connecting with the content of Fake Beliefs, Mysterious Answers, and How To Actually Change Your Mind.
more info, pls
Sure! Plans aren't super concrete yet. The Highly Advanced Epistemology 101 for Beginners ebook may come out sooner than the print versions of Rationality: From AI to Zombies, because it was quite popular and may turn out to be a more useful quick-and-dirty introduction to MIRI researchers' philosophical outlook.
