"Con la ingeniería genética, podremos aumentar la complejidad de nuestro ADN y mejorar la raza humana. Pero será un proceso lento porque habrá que esperar unos 18 años para ver el efecto de los cambios en el código genético."
— Stephen Hawking

Simplified Meaning:
Genetic engineering allows us to make changes to our DNA, which can help to make humans smarter, healthier, and stronger. However, these changes take a long time to show results. Just like planting a tree and waiting for it to grow, we won't see the improvements in people right away. If we change the DNA of a baby, we have to wait until that baby grows up, which takes about 18 years, to see how the changes affect them. Imagine if you wanted to make a stronger, healthier basketball team. You would start by training kids, but you wouldn't see their full potential until they grew up and practiced for many years. So, making these kinds of genetic changes requires patience and time to really see their benefits.
