Is it impossible or do we just not have the technology required?

You don’t simply make a human, so to speak. The process of a human developing from a fertilised egg cell to an actual walking, shit-talking idiot is extremely complex and requires lots of different biological processes to occur in the right order, with very specific conditions and needs. I’m a medical student and I hate embryology so i won’t even bother trying to explain any of those processes, but if you want a detailed answer there are plenty of resources online that break down these processes in a way that is (sort of) understandable.
Combining all the elements and atoms that make up a human being will not create a human being – maybe you might be able to create some abomination that loosely resembles one, but I’m not sure it’s the best way to go about it (just have sex or something idk). Plus, we barely understand why biological humans are sentient, so we’d do extremely well to somehow make a bunch of raw materials sentient.
