Review the Google documentation for inserting images.

First off, insertImage must be called on a specific slide, not a specific presentation. It needs to know where to put the image.

Secondly, the content of insertImage can't be empty like that. It needs to be a url, blob, etc.

For example, try some code like this:

var slide = SlidesApp.getActivePresentation().getSlides()[0];
slide.insertImage('https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/56/Wiki_Eagle_Public_Domain.png');
