A google search shows that it depends on the outlet doing the interview: https://www.google.com/search?q=Craig%20Federighi%20intervie...
Mac centric sites just do "An interview with Craig Federighi" or something like that but Wall Street Journal did "Apple's Software Chief Craig Federighi on Apple Intelligence"
This is a good observation, thanks for sharing. Interestingly, The Verge uses the title "Here’s Joanna Stern’s full interview with Craig and Joz." for a video WSJ called "Apple Execs on What Went Wrong with Siri, iOS 26 and More" (https://www.theverge.com/news/686948/heres-joanna-sterns-ful...)
It's a fuzzy science based on the author's estimation of how known a name is within their intended readership.
From a brief look (https://www.techradar.com/uk/search?searchTerm=Craig+Federig...), it looks like Tech Radar expects more of their readers to know who Craig is - going from "Apple exec Craig Federighi" to just "Craig Federighi".
I couldn't find another article with Sameer Samat.
I wonder if a media outlets' intended or real audience could be inferred from indicators like this.
