Why does the demo have sharp steps in the color?

If you look at the demo (https://josephg.com/perlin/3/) you will see distinct step changes in the color.

Why does this occur? How can it be prevented so the colors transition smoothly?

Notice the user uses HSLA instead of RGBA

hsla is a different color scheme than rgba, (hue,light,saturation,alpha and red, green, blue, alpha)

hsla changes really quickly and i guess the colors last quite long

In case you're wondering, saturation and light are given in percentages (%)

FIX ?:
I'm not really sure, you could (maybe) use rgba instead of hsla, and initially change red, then after a certian interval change blue, after a certian interval change green, or something similar.
