Origin

H.E.R.B.I.E. was co-created by Mister Fantastic in order to speed up some calculations he needed when he was away from his computers at the Baxter Building. H.E.R.B.I.E. was later compromised by the Living Brain known as Dr. Sun. H.E.R.B.I.E. secretly worked his own agenda. His trechory was finally discovered when he attacked Susan Storm. H.E.R.B.I.E. then went on attacking the rest of the Fantastic Four, using his access to their computers to take them down. In the end, H.E.R.B.I.E. ended up sacrificing himself to ensure that Dr. Sun could no longer be a threat to the Fantastic Four. It appears that a newer version has been created to, in part, act as Franklin Richards nanny.
