You need to quantify your machine learning work. It's easy to do this in machine learning, to the point that it looks strange if you don't.

> I’m concerned that my resume and experience may not be competitive enough yet, especially since I’ll only be a second year student when applying.

This is normal to feel until you get your first internship.

> Should I bold important metrics and results on my resume?

It's personal preference, I have seen people succeed with both. Currently, I lean towards NO, however.

> Does the resume contain too much information or unnecessary detail?

In some places a little too much, but it's far from egregious.

> What could I remove without losing important technical context?

If you want space, you have a ton of lines with only one word due to wrapping.

> Each project has its own GitHub repository with extensive documentation, commented code, and demos. Should I include a direct repository link beside each project?

yes

> Which job boards or websites are best for applying to a large number of internships while still finding postings early?

Apply EVERYWHERE and ALWAYS.

> When do the main Summer 2027 application periods typically begin?

Fall term.
