Personally, I don't like them, because of the asymmetry of effort in sending vs receiving, and that you can't tell how serious it is before listening to it.

The kind of muttering, stammering, and rambling my dad sends me in his voice notes is going to be quite a challenge to transcribe for anyone. Especially an AI, which will garble the content even more.

So yeah, I hate them, too. Wish there was a setting we could select on the receiving end to disable these.
