What if this technology could be applied so you can’t be manipulated? If we are already seeing people use this to simulate and train sales people to deal with tough prospects we can squint our eyes a bit and see this being used to help people identify logical fallacies and con men.

That's just being hopeful/optimistic. There are more incentives to use it for manipulation than to protect from manipulation.

That happens with a lot of tech. Social networks are used to con people more than to educate people about con men.
