The thing is, if you can have 4 hours of charismatic conversation, and do this several times, the self that you revert back to will slowly get more charismatic.

This is like putting on makeup that actually makes the face more beautiful when taken off.

I'm not so worried about this sort of faking, because it trains you to develop the real thing that you are faking.
