<<simply a few electrons and positrons.>>

Yes, those experiments have not yet had the energy to create even one single atom... even of Hydrogen, the simplest Element.

So far just a few electrons and positrons is all that can be produced. .

These matched pairs were first observed in 1933 when gamma rays were used to bombard atoms

Pair production | physics | Britannica

and at least again 2008 using laser light.

Laser technique produces bevy of antimatter (nbcnews.com)

Gold being used as it's dense and a metal.

so in answer to the question

"Did Scientists Just Prove That Light Creates Matter? "

The answer is "Yes" first observed in 1933, and we have not moved on much since then. We have been unable to create even one whole atom of anything so far to date.
